When our customer sent in the dash pad assembly from a 1970 Oldsmobile Cutlass, it had seen better days. Cracks, faded vinyl, and worn-out components made it clear that this dash needed a full restoration—not just a quick fix. At Just Dashes, we specialize in bringing classic interiors back to factory-fresh condition, so we got to work.

The Full Restoration Process
Rather than just patching up damaged areas, we performed a complete restoration of the entire dash pad assembly, ensuring a seamless, long-lasting result. Here’s how we did it:

✅ Vacuum-Formed Vinyl Skin – We stripped the old material and applied a brand-new, thermally vacuum-formed vinyl skin over the reshaped and refinished dash pad, restoring its factory-correct texture and durability.

✅ Structural Repairs – Any underlying cracks or weakened areas in the foam and frame were repaired to ensure the dash had a solid foundation.

✅ Replacement of Small Components – This Cutlass dash featured various small parts that had deteriorated over time. We sourced and replaced worn-out pieces, including the vent bezels, trim pieces, and mounting brackets, ensuring everything functioned as it should.

✅ Factory-Correct Finish – We color-matched the dash to the customer’s original interior, guaranteeing a showroom-quality look.

A Simple, Hassle-Free Reinstallation
Because we handled every aspect of the restoration—including replacing parts as needed—our customer didn’t have to hunt down missing components or make last-minute modifications. When they received the dash, it was a turnkey solution: just take it out of the box and install it back into the car.

For Cutlass owners and other classic car enthusiasts, this level of restoration ensures that their interiors not only look amazing but also function as they should—just like the day they rolled off the assembly line.
