    FIX THAT BUSTED DASH WITH A NEW OVERLAY!!

    I stopped by a friends shop today to pick up some parts and asked him about a way to fix the dash in the 77 Cherokee. He does some looking in his books then goes into the back and comes back with a ABS plastic overlay. It's a perfect fit! It does require glueing it down to the old dash and if your dash is buckled up then some trimming of the old dash pad may be required to be certain of a smooth fit. Also, since it is ABS it can be easily spray dyed to match your interior color. He said he hasn't sold one for a FSJ in years and has some more in his warehouse. The price is $99.95 plus shipping. He said the company he gets them from makes them on demand so he should be able to get all that are needed. He's a great guy to deal with so if your interested give him a call at (662)-566-8776 his name is Tony Ceja and be sure to tell him I (Scott Little) refered ya....karma ponts ya know. Almost forgot part number for this style is C-27-100

        Looks good but if I do that then I have to finish the rest of the interior so it doesn't look worse than it already does.
