26 crash pad.

PostPost by: nomad » Fri Jun 03, 2022 3:42 pm

I'd like to purchase the ABS thermoformed crash pad / dash top. These have been unavailable for some time now and I am wondering why and when they will be available again and if anyone can lend some insight into that. The ABS ones look more authentic than fiberglass which is available.

I was involved in small plastic manufacturing when young and am simply amazed these are not available. If you have the molds there is absolutely nothing involved in the manufacture and a cost of pennies.

Anyone know who has the molds and why none are available????

Its listed at SJS and appears to be plastic. Not pennies though.
Did you try RD? They have items not listed on the website.

Tried RD and Bean and I think others. I'll check SJS but I'm thinking there are none and haven't been for a while. May make one especially since they are not pennies but really have other things to do.

OK, I'll try him as well. SJS shows one not available till August. There pic is apparently of an original so I will call them to make sure of what they are advertising.
