I'm certain that there are numerous, satisfied recepients of Camp914s' dash top refurbishments, but, has anyone in the concours circles had firsthand experience with this repair. The photos on their site indicate that their refinishing can't be told from new. If this is the case, I'll be buying one. However, I don't want to get a renewed dash pad if it's apparent that it doesn't match the original.

Yes Lavanaut, that's exactly what I'm talkin' about. The glove box will open, but not with the "pop". Eventually what can happen is that the g-box door will chafe the recess of that expensive top. If you have an uncracked top, maybe you can trade with someone with an early one in the same condition. It would seem the early ones would be more rare than the later ones.

Good pictures of the detail by you and Paul for future reference.
