Look but don't touch

[polarus]

Sorry about the photo's but the doors are locked, burnt orange dash pad for a 1970 Fury, no cracks! Spoke to the yard owner and he said it's not worth trying to remove it it's too brittle.

 

[Ironwolf]

So close but yet so far away ........... :tantrum:

 

[68plymouth383]

I'll bet he would let you pull it with cash in his hand, and if you hurt it it's already your's........

 

[detmatt]

Start lathering it up with some moisturizers and conditioners now and go back for it in a few months.

 

[68plymouth383]

Give it some Avon skin so soft. Or soak it in transom fluid

 

[cm23uoc]

In that case the seller shouldn't Charge much or let you have a try and Charge later, after all it's all lost anyways in his opinion.
I*d give it a try.

 

[polara71]

Do it......... the burnt orange pads are the hardest to come by and seem to have been the easiest to crack

 

[polara71]

I'd pull the whole dash , frame and all bring it home and try the remedies that others posted

 

[68plymouth383]

The people have spoken. The dash pad must live!!.....

 

[patrick66]

Save the pad!!!

ya know, in another context, that sounds really wrong!

:laughing4:

 

[Fratzog]

The guy just sounds lazy. I agree with the above. He should let you pull it.

 

[polarus]

He doesn't have a problem with me removing the dash, he thinks that it will crack as soon as it's touched.

 

[68plymouth383]

Show him some green backs and pull it........ If it cracks he's already paid.........

yes, pull the whole dash. drop the steering column and 6 bolts later it's yours. if you try to pull just the pad while it's in the car you probably will crack it.

And that will give you at least 200 parts to put on eBay for the rest of us.

Years ago, when there were still quite a few good cars in the junkyards, if there was a car there with a lot of good parts that I wanted, I would make a deal with the yard owner that for a set price I could take as much as I wanted off of the car. It usually ended up being pretty cheap too.
