Re: Were padded dashes standard?

Owen, I have not seen a JustDash pad, just heard reports. The one I originally saw on a 56 400 that was featured on the cover of a mag several years ago was installed backwards. That is, the seam that should have curved in and down to meet the stamping of the lower dash, was actually curved out toward the windshield. I have the mag here somewhere. This Scottish Heather/Dover White 400 also had a Carib intake. You may remember it. In any case the profile of the padded dash should follow the profile of the front fenders - it should curve up and out and then roll back at the seam as per the profile of the front fender at the headlight. I know DH was quite pleased with his but I haven't seen that one up close and personal.
