63 Dash Pads

[Harry S.]

When I restored my 63 I installed new reproduction dash pads as the originals were cracked. With all this free time I'm thinking of re-skinning the original fiberglass. I see some that go over the old pads and some that replace the old pads.

The thought of going over the old pads is not appealing to me. Has anyone replaced the old pads? Any thoughts or should I just forget the idea?

Thanks

If the underlying material is good, it would be a great "lockdown" job - my pads are Corvette America and they make the vinyl too.

What color pads do you have. I have a set of Corvette America tan pads that were in my car some time ago. I replaced them with my originals.

Bob, they are tan.
