83 Dash Pad
Pulled the dash pad for repairs.
What options for a cracked dash? Does the repair last?
Date on bottom of dash 1983 Chevy.

Though it's made in 1983 - it's a 1984 dash pad.
MAM has one for yours - https://www.mamotorworks.com/corvett...-54-11347.html

All three also sell dash pad skins but I don't know how the skins stack up against the replacement pads.

I bought a whole pad for an 81 ...a long time ago, maybe 8 years. Still haven't put it in yet, ha ha.... That would be the full face dash and pad assembly.
If a guy has to replace the windshield for whatever reason (e.g. cracked glass or frame rot repair), that would be a good time to put in a new pad, while the glass is out. I've heard mixed reviews on the fit of the large pads.
