First of all, welcome to the list.  The more the merrier.  Second,

There are two companies that I am aware of that recover these types 
of dashes and door panels.  Dash Specialists in Medford Oregon and Just Dashes 
(1-800-247-3274) in California.  I have had experience with Just 
Dashes and they do good work that looks very original.  They 
apparently reproduce the vinyl molding process that the factory used.
Good luck !
