I bought this dash pad as a NOS part for my 1969 Pace Car. I have sold the car but before I put it up for sale I want to make sure It is a NOS part and not reproduction.
I can not find any good pictures of a original dash pad or the newer reproduction ones to compare to.
The pad has never been installed on a car, looks like the clips have been on before and there is a smooth spot on one part of the dash pad as seen in picture.
It also looks like the 2 stud mounts have some hard adhesive as seen in pictures.
Opinions are appreciated. Thanks

That is the same color inner support plastic (my original was off white) and the same bald spot as on my NOS dash pad.

I had to reinforce it quite a bit as that purple plastic can get very brittle.

I would say it is NOS without a doubt.

I believe the Nos pad with bald spot started early 80's 81or 82 IIRC.
