Hey guys, Working on cleanin up my 85 k-10 dash pad. New ones are like $300. The old on in it has some screw holes and cracks in them. Is there a way I can repair the cracks and holes and repaint it?

you cant repair that...its a wierd material and probably rotten anyway. I got mine off ebay for my 85..cant remember price but it wasnt $300

the holes would be easier to fix, then the cracks. Kragen sells the dash repair goop. I guess you could use that then just dye the whole dash or have an upolstery shop dye it for you......about 100.00.

recover the entire thing with suede... or other fabric.

thanks for the input guys.. I might try the fabric if you guys say it will be hard to repair... I think I will have trouble trying to cover it with fabric tho... I know you can get dash covers and stuff but I wanted to try and just keep this one

IMO, go with a molded plastic dashboard cover.

You'll probably want to knock down the high spots around the cracking so it sits nice/flush/level.

But I've seen some covers that, while not quite as nice as a NOS OEM dash, still look damn good for $100



Just say "no" to fabric covered dashes.
