    WTB - basketweave for 68S dash

    WTB - basketweave for 68S dash

    Anybody know of a source?

    I would like OEM, with enough for either the whole dash, or the radio and glove box area

    Thanks

    You can get a roll of it from Pelican parts for something like $25-30. I just redid my dash facia with it and it turned out great.

    Best,

    I believe what Pelican sells is a reproduction, and apparently it is not a good one, see this thread

    68S dash material is elephant skin not basket weave, basketweave would suffice for 67S,69S, I think 68L even is elephant skin although 68T could be basketweave also
    thanks Bert

    Bert,
    Either basketweave or elephant hide would be correct.
    This contemporary pic is from Brian Long's book p 97.

    HTH,
