Dash pad


I ordered a dash pad and got the front portion of it. The one I took off was completely covered with vinyl and padding so I asked the company I bought from and they said the dash came in 2 parts. The front which was padded and the part the goes against the window was metal and just painted. Does that sound right?

Correct,  i think the 63 canadian cars had padding right up to the windshield glass,  i think you got  a USA pontiac pad instead.

I was looking at a USA 64 today and it has the 1/2 padded,  1/2 steel

 

Hey,  i just realized you are the one that bought my buddy Norms 63 pontiac 4dr HT,  283 car

It just has noisy lifters and needs a valve adjustment,  i remember hearing it run a few years ago,  tap tap tap,  but mechanicly A-ok from what  i remember.

It wont have valve problems as you were discussing earlier,  just adjustments, etc, etc.  there should not be any need to pull the cylinder heads off.

As I understand it,ALL 64 Canadian fullsize came with a padded dash top.

BOTH of my Parisiennes came with the full pad.

I've had 2 64 Laurentian 4 dr posts.

One came with the full pad & one with the short one.

My guess is that Parisiennes came standard with the full pad & it was optional on other models....
