I need the center for the dash pad chrome for a 68 Firebird. This is about 1 1/2 to 2 inches long that goes between the long chrome on the dash pad. Any one have this item.


I have two 68 Firebirds: 68 convertible ls2, auto 4L60E, red interior, white/black power top. I have owned since 1971. 2) 68 coupe, aqua/white tope. aqua interior, 350 4 speed. I am restoring this car and it will be for sale. Before paint or after.

I sent Gus my xtra one a couple of years ago. Not easy to find just that piece.


I used to be indecisive. Now I'm not sure.
I feel like I am diagonally parked in a parallel universe.

I purchased a 68 coupe without that piece. It is hard to find. I can purchase a new one, however, -------

Still looking for the short piece for the dash chrome in my 68. Check your storage please.

This is not by chance the white plastic "clip" that secures the center dash panel trip piece (around the radio/ashtray)?

If so - I was thumbing through my new Classic Industries Firebird catalog last night and noted they sell this item as a reproduction.

No this is the short chrome piece that connects the chrome on the dash pad itself. I can find the complete set but need just the 1 to 2 inch piece. Thanks,
