Allan, I still have the original dash in my car, and am starting to re-veneer it this week myself. I can assure you it is not straight grained by any stretch of the imagination. As faded and cracked

My bad. Mine, on a Mark IA, looks somewhat plastic but clearly has at least a metal substrate to which a magnet is attracted. Perhaps it has a vinyl covering, or maybe the pattern it exhibits is cast
