Does any one know of a good company on the west coast to do wood graining on a metal dash for my 1940 V-16

   Ken, check out this link, I used this company and process for my 41 60S dash.  It looks amazing and has a automotive clear coat over it. Been in my car for a few years still looks like the day I installed it. http://www.hydro-dip.com/

I was very pleased with Robert Kennedy's work. I cant find his phone number but he is in Whittier Ca,   If you P M  Me I will send his address if needed.  You can see his work in my restoration blog for my 42 Cadillac 6719 restoration. His attention to detail is great but he is useually back logged so early contact is important.

Good Luck
