i just bought a 1980 chevy luv mikado its really nice but the dash board is cracked really bad what can i do about it would it be better to find a new dash if so where can i buy one? what are some mods that are important or just good to have. thank you for your help in advance

i also need to know where i can get the bench seats for this truck because the seats that are in it i think are beyond repair so if you could tell me that would be awesome thanks again.

The dash can be found by doing a search for them ere. Just recently we had a few people order some out of AUS that are fantastic dash replacements.

The seats you have two solutions. Re-ulposter it or go to the boneyard and find the seats out of a LUV, Isuzu Trooper or Pup. They seem to work K.

hey thanks i apericiate it. performance wise are there things that should be done to give it a little more boost? that anyone would recommend

Yeah it's called a V-8 swap !! no really these little 1.8's dont have much of anything as far as power, and very few performance mods you can do to them. just my two pennies.

Weber carb, offy intake and a header are the most common things to do.

Grimace, havent see too many posts from ya. =-) Can you really put an
offenhauser intake on a stock luv motor? They are cool intakes, we have one on a 53 Ford Flathead (Can't use it, though its for my Dads
29 Model A Hot Rod =P )

You can use an offy for the luv if you can find one. the last one that was on ebay went for a pretty good lump 'o cash.

Yup. They are hard to find, and pricey when you can find one. But worth it.
