Okay Biscuit, I just talked to my dad and he said that the dash on the car is painted steel, (he said he would check it later to be sure, but he's pretty sure that's the way they did them back then). He said it definitely wasn't the burnished timber, but I thought the painted dash was pretty impressive. Silly me, I figured it was the 'stuff' like what he has in his new truck, 'fancy woodwork looking stuff'. He laughed at me and said the new stuff was plastic. I should have known!
