    Hello All:

    Thank you for this awesome site.

    I have a 1972 Comet. The dashboard is really cracked. Is it best to find an original replacement or purchase one of the fitted vinyl covers. If I go the cover route, how do I find the correct interior color.

    Thanks for the help.

    Mike

    (y) Of the four cars cannibalized I found, I think there's at least one Dashboard @ B & R AUTO 2363 So 1900 W Ogden Utah 84401 PH: 801-731-5550 he told me he's shipped all over. I'm guessing now that he had 2 mavericks & 2 71 or later Comets because I noticed 2 complete sets of Comet taillights and a set of 4 of what I call jumbo Maverick hubcaps because they had a large Maverick steer in the center.

    I just spent a week of my life watching that "little" auction that you have there in your town. :thumbs2:

    I was in Arizona last May. We spent 3 days in Laughlin, Nv. and drove down to the town of Oatman on original route 66.
