    Dash board spruce up

    My current dash board is looking a bit sad and worn - can anyone recommend either a good supplier or good repairer in Aus?

    It doesn't need to be concourse, just good quality.

    ProStitch were the recommended ones but I found that while they were helpful, they were not good communicators and didn't follow through on what was offered/suggested in my case. I went overseas to buy my dash after several attempts to go with ProStitch. However, I know others have found them reasonable.

        Scotty - I have used these guys at Acacia Ridge in Brisbane before for my Alfa 105 dash. They did a great job.

            There's no doubt Prostitch occasionally loses the ball on communication... But if you can persevere and are not in a hurry, they do to a terrific job. Prostitch have the proper vacuum forming gear to re-skin a dash with a very close to original grain, or they can do a custom job (normally leather and you will see stitching like the factory does it in later cars).

            Your car is probably special/valuable enough to consider buying one of the new reproductions. Yes $3k is ridiculous, but it is a 74 carrera...

              I am sure ProStitch are a good mob also. Scott, give Dashboard Restorations in Acacia Ridge, Bris South, a call. They did a vacuum reskin of my fallible Alfa dash. Not sure what they do these days.

                Thanks everyone will give the guys at Acacia Ridge a call.

                This dashboard is for my new 77 coupe, so no need to spend a motsa on it. If it was the other car, well, different story.
