I just re-did my interior and have these dash pads leftover that are original to the car. Both are old and dinghy but only one very small crack on an edge. They’re very hard compared to the new ones.

Question is - are these worth anything as cores? When I ordered my new ones it didn’t seem like any one offered recovering original cores. Didn’t want to chuck them if someone could use them or had some value. I tried looking through the for sale section and found only one recent ad and it’s for some $$$ and they marked sold the next day.

Yes they have some value as cores. Some people recover them.

Restomod crowd probably would grab them up. Custom interior, perfect for recovering.
