That looks like a 64 dash.

Is there a difference? What? 64 is Seville grain and 65 is Madrid. What does that mean. My 65 black dash and glovebox lid look like the e-bay listing. I also have an old f-85 dash which is in plastic green color and is entirely different from the black one. I know they are both 65s and both are different. |

I know they are both 65s and both are different.There is a disticnt difference between the two graining pattern between the 64 Seville and the 65 Madrid. If you care about a correct part that is pretty visable, you'd want a 65 Madrid grain on a 65 car. If your 65 dash pad looks like most and don't want to spend the big bucks to get it redone, then throw in the 64 and go for it. |

So has anyone used just dashes and what does it cost to get the dash and glove box door redone?

I haven't used them but I have heard good things about them from many different people who have used them. Since they are close by (Van Nuys, CA) I plan to bring them my 442 dash and the dash from my little chev.

I guess I will have to look a little closer at the graining to understand the difference. Hope I can see this at the next car show I go to that has Oldsmobiles.... Thanks for the reply, I think I understand but need to see it for myself to fully appreciate the difference. |

If you could see them side by side you can see the difference. I can't do a good job of explaining the difference, but the Sevelle looks like it has bigger, deeper lines than the Madrid, if that makes sense. I tried to find a description of the two on some of the interior places, but they didn't have anything that I could find.

Thanks for your efforts, I'll have to see it in person with my own squinty eyes.  |

It was really hard for me to tell going by the pictures the guy posted but I too know that they are different, either way it looked pretty cherry.

Yeah, real cherry..... I bought it ;D ;D ;D ;D! It is like new, very soft, no damage at all. Excellent quality! The ONLY problem I may have is it looks too dark  . My interior is red and the red on the dash I took out is more red where the sun didn't hit it and darker (like what I got) where the sun did. I looked in the assembly manual and they didn't offer maroon but red. I don't know about 64??. I'll post some pix later but any thoughts. |
