Real wood for dash and doors?
Does anyone know where to find real wood or real wood veneer with epoxy resin finish for gauge cluster, glove box and door inserts for a 72 super? LMC used to carry a set made out of rosewood for the dash. They don't have them any more. I'm looking for rosewood but might consider something else. Thanks.

Re: Real wood for dash and doors?
I agree. I'm hoping the catalogue will have some other options. Other links that heve been suggested are for the decal. Maybe someone else out there knows of another option.
My old LMC catalogue has a picture of exactly what I wanted. Only 3mm thick, UV protected for fading and same style as decals but made of Zebrano rosewood. I was hoping to find matching door inserts. When I called LMC I found out they don't have them any more and I'm looking for dash and doors now. |
