I'm hoping someone knows the origin of this fiberglass custom dash. As you can see it's quite a nice design. The new owner may have painted it but they say it came with the car which is a UC Sunbird. Anyone know who made this? Cheers.

Sort of reminds me of VR/VS Commodore shaped dash pad and instrument binnacle.

I'm guessing that's only half the dash, looks like the whole bottom half is missing?

 

I'd guess it's been loosely based on a Commodore dash, maybe VR - VS (ish)?

 

EDIT:

 

DOH! Dave beat me to it again...

Really? I think it looks similar to an explicit photograph of two men making sweet sweet love, but each to there own!!

its based on the VR-VS dash I think someone(dunno who) makes em for the Commodore Cup cars where they just bin the original dash and replace in with this lightweight fibreglass job
looks like a bits chopped off the passenger side to make it fit the trana

Non air bag VS has the dished area in the pad.
