Restoration parts supplier Classic Industries has announced a new line of authentic restoration parts in these 1970-1978 Chevrolet Camaro dash pads. These new reproductions are designed to duplicate the look of the original equipment found in those vehicles. These aren’t just replacement parts. They are finely crafted reproductions meant to emulate the look and feel of the originals.
One of the hardest things when restoring a classic car is finding the equivalent of original equipment parts. Much of the aftermarket is made up of modern materials and manufacturing, which can stick out like a sore thumb in a vintage car. Not so with these new dash pads from Classic Industries. (One is for models without A/C and the other one is for models with A/C) These are built just like the original GM parts, using the same vinyl-over-foam construction, so they retain that authentic look and feel.
What makes these dash pads so special? They feature the correct grain pattern with faux stitching, simulating the originals. The contours and lines follow accurately, and there is reinforcement in the gauge area to ensure a proper fit with the instrument cluster. And, of course, they even come with the correct mounting clips and instructions to make installation a breeze.
Classic Industries stocks these dash pads in black. And if you need another color? No problem! Paint them up in any original Camaro interior paint color with OER interior paint.
That’s not all with authenticity though. The smallest details do make a difference, hence Classic Industries also includes both sizes of mounting clips (2-9/16 inches for the short ones and 2-7/8 inches for the long). In case you need to replace them later, you can also order them at part number R310 on the Classic Industries website.
With the proper use of original materials and construction methods, Classic Industries allows these Camaros to be restored to their former glory so the spirit of the muscle car era can live on for generations to come.
If you are restoring the inside of your 1970-1978 Camaro, then look no further than Classic Industries’ reproduction 1970-1978 Camaro dash pads. They combine the essence of authenticity, quality, and ease of installation into a package that’s really hard to beat.
