Reproduction Dash for 1967 and 1968 Cougar XR-7 is AVAILABLE NOW!

Back in July of 2022 I announced a target price for these at $499 for the set. Since then the world has changed. I bet you guys are sick of hearing the word Tariff. So am I. You guys have been incredibly supportive from the beginning and also patient beyond belief.

So here is the good news: This first run is going to be $499.99!

I cannot promise you that we can offer this in the future, and I am doing a little financial rationalization to make it work this time. I will be selling at least 40 sets directly, this will make a few more dollars that I am using to offset some of the additional tariff cost. I will put them up on Desert Classic Parts to facilitate that shortly.

I am also putting the lenses up. You are going to want to replace the lenses while you have the dash apart. This is particularly true of the oil pressure lens. You have to pull both sides of the dash to replace that one. And there is a bonus. If you are from the south you probably know what a lanyap is (lagniappe): a little something extra. In this case it is an additional lens labeled volts so you can swap out your AMP meter for a Volt meter. Rocketman offers these. He also does 3 wire tach conversions while you are at it…

If you are doing the dash this is also a good time to think about LED bulb conversions and replacing any burned up bulb shields and even replacing the XR7 logo in front of the passenger. The most expensive phrase in the car hobby: While I am at it I might as well…

Bill,

Does the dash come with new standard gauge center cones?

Thanks for doing this,
Jim

It does not. After looking at the current state of lenses it made the most sense to reproduce the entire lens set. And you know how one thing leads to another I thought it would be cool to add a volts lens while I was at it. The complete set is $120

And of course’67 and '68 had to be different. So I did both

When do you expect them to be in stock?

The lenses are in stock now. WCCC has them up on their site. I took pictures today and worked on editing them. It’s very hard to take pictures of clear plastic.

I just noticed that the dash is for the XR-7. My brain got all excited about the bezel and didn’t notice it’s not for the standard.

Jim

Got mine ordered. I really appreciate your effort in getting these made.

I just got the lens kits added to the web site.

And the 1968 version

They are coming, but we do not have a ship date yet. it should be soon!
