I need a beautiful dash to put in my 79 elky and i dont know what kind i should put it. Could some experts please help me with this and give me some ideas about what i can put in with not much problems and where i can get them and what car and what year the car is.. thanks

You have some options.

You could buy a Full Face cap to replace the cracked plastic one you now have. You can find one from a Similar year GM Car like a Monty or Gran National or an Olds. I've seen members rides that have had BMW Dashes in their trucks. Pretty much limited only by your ability and imagination.

Thanks can some of you guys tell me what you guys have in your elky?

I actually found a new dash on ebay a couple of years ago, the seller had it listed as a GM dash...and said he didn't know what it fit. I won the auction for $200.00

I'm dropping in an 83 Pontiac Grand Prix dash with the full gauge pak.
should look nicer than my current one that someone painted purple :P
The car will be gutted during a rotisserie restoration so its not something for the faint of heart.

Thanks can some of you guys tell me what you guys have in your elky?

Browse through the 5th generation Elkys in Members rides there are some pictures there.

I sent a 1970 Trans Am dash to Justdashes in Van Nuys for recovering, and recently got it back, took about 7 weeks, but it looks brand new.
Cost $650.00, they will paint them to match your interior for an extra $50.00.

will this work?

i definatly need a new dash......someone told me that the dash caps arent all that good...should i even bother??somebody save me from this misery!

Full face dash caps aren't that bad if your looking at not spending a lot of money...keep in mind it is a cover up...but consider your alternatives...finding a OEM dash in good shape, having Justdashes redo yours, or continue to stare at the dash you currently have with all those lovely cracks.

how much does just dashes cost??

will that fit in my 79 elky?

the monte dash is an exact fit, but the iroc dash will need heavy modifications, talk to the guys at http://www.laureneng.com the owner installed a gta dash in his elky look on the site for the xt-2. It is awesome. Hope that helped.

I added a Turno Cover as Passer bys kept Throwing Trash in the Bed!--Looked like the Blue One Listed--on Owners Page! Ecxcept turno Cover was White --after many Miles I Insalled a "409"in IT! & yrs Later Sold IT-- as It was gettng Prety BEAT! never Saw It Again! & bought a Used 79 & a few Parts Elkys Best Vehicle GM ever Made In My Opinion--DONO? WHY! the Stopped Making EM?-- Ole JIM--
