Just checked an Ebay auction I was in on - I placed a max bid of $350 for a dash in good condition (no cracks), Final bid was $901 US. :eek:

I'm not in touch with reality I guess.

Is this the norm??

I have seen various uncracked dashes going for less when offered in non-auction situations, but even then, $600 or more is common. On eBay (where bidders go nuts), they frequently touch this kind of level, especially for the early cars like mine. (I'll live with the single small crack in mine.) Sad, but true.

I bought a 77/78 280Z uncracked dash off Ebay for around $225. My '71 240Z came with a NIB dash which I still haven't installed. Previous owner paid + $600 for it and he works for Nissan.

I purchased a new OEM dash for my 78 280 from Baker-Jackson Nissan in Houston about 4 years ago. 15% discount, 8.25% TX Sales Tax - $835.00

I was told at the time it was one of two in the regional warehouse.
