We are wrapping up the tooling on the late dash tops in another 3-4 weeks. I say 5 as typically there's always something that takes a little longer. These are made from a NOS original. The method of manufacture will allow it to look like NOS, but will actually be more robust in that you will not have the expansion and contraction issues the OEM did, but the texture is an exact duplicate.
We are doing something a little different in having 2 levels of group buy. If you sign up before these go in production, your cost will be $310, if you execute the transaction,when these are a week from being ready to ship. Think "pre-order". So you will have a period 1 week prior to place the order, we will contact you to let you know. This gets you the very best pricing. If you can't do it right away, we will be keeping the GB open for 30 days after we start shipping , your order will be filled in order, and you cost will be $400. The full retail on these will be $550. We didn't want to put this out there until we know we could make a good product. I was really hoping to have a prototype ready for WCR, but it's just too close. I wanted to thank Ken for making his NOS dash available for duplication, so the part will bear his name. So who's game? |

Really, this isn't about early/late. It's about vented/nonvented dash frames. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Just for all the people who are wondering if they're early or late.
Oh and I'm super happy to see this production. Can't wait. |
