They use green "flower" shop foam. You can buy it online in almost any size you want even eBay. They use that because it is easy to shape and sand. You can use soft sponge stuff. Mattress foam, pillow foam, but it takes a lot more effort. Look at some sites that have custom dash's in them. Some how too site. The only problem today is most places have just fiber glass dash's.
I am not sure how you could do a Luv dash unless you were just doing just the top. Their is a lot of vinyl material that can be heated to shrink to fit most shapes. I suppose you could use one peace, shrink, and then cut out your dash holes.
I have thought of doing this on my V8 Luv that has no padded dash at all. I looked at this many moon's ago, before I had any Luv's. I do not remember what it was for any more.
Good luck with your project!
