I was just browsing thru everyones pix of there cars and, it seems almost everyone's interior are new looking, nice dash, very black, or shiny. My interior isn't that great, I've ordered 50resto's back in black kit, but I can't find any center consoles or new dash's. I was wondering how everyone got their's to look so good.

I have two cars with now over 140K miles and both have basically been driven a lot and rarely stored and neither has a broken, worn or bad looking dash. Keep them dusted and some kind of protectant on it (I used to use armor all but have since switched to a really good leather conditioner on the plastic and vynil and works great!).

mine looks like ass,
the dash is all busted up from the previous owner putting in a cd player. he made a bracket to hold the radio up but it got in the way of the center console, so it doesnt sit all the way down and i cant bolt down my ash tray/cig lighter. one of these days ill get in there and redo the bracket and get a new dash.

autozone sells the duplicolor interior paint, i used krylon fusion (couldn't find duplicolor white) on everything except the seats and there have been no chips.

I just want to know how he got grease on the headliner too.

My car was a little ragged,i started buying pieces whenever and wherever I could,I got a set of Raven Turbo-Coupe seats (mint) for the front and back for $250.00 shipped.Deals are out there if you look.Dashes are all over E-Bay for the Stangs.dashes for my car are a little harder to find in mint shape than for a Stang.I still keep me eyes open.I'll probably end up buying one of those molded Plastic (?) dash caps for mine.$100.00 isn't too bad.
