While temporarily out of stock, Bob Baker normally sells new reproduction dashes for the 66 Imperial. Nice reproductions:

Yes, you could go to Just Dashes but they would charge more than 2 times the price that Bob Baker charges. And Bob Baker's reproduction is just that - a reproduction using your original metal frame and ends up just like the originals based on what I have seen. All the character lines are crisp and authentic and it is a reproduction, not a repair. Just Dashes products are based on cores you send in and then the cracks are repaired and then resurfaced with a new glued down thin skinned vinyl foam that takes out all the character lines of the original dash (and covers up the repair).
We need to support Bob Baker in order to get even more authentic quality reproductions from him rather than support the likes of Just Dashes. I personally have never seen a Just Dashes repair job that I felt I would have in one of my cars. Bob has a lot more C body reproductions in the works but he will not be able to keep going without C body owners helping out by buying his products. I am providing as many like new original parts for him to use to reproduce his parts as part of my efforts to make C body parts available. His efforts are our last best hope of keeping our cars original looking and just like factory into the future. Just complaining about the lack of C body reproductions will not make them happen, but real efforts to support him are working, so please help out.

Wow, Baker's dash looks like the ticket, especially as nice as my ragtop is. Guess I'll have to save up a little bit and pursue that avenue, thanks!
