At least in the photo, neither of those look terrible.

The second one is terrible as it's been painted over. More than likely the interior was a two-tone spruce, or a faded spruce and they tried to fix that.

You're right Shaun. Only saw the first photo earlier on my phone. Looking at my laptop now and seeing the rest of them with the paint lifting...I retract my statement

Best of luck to the new owner, that thing looked like it was ready to crack if you looked at it the wrong way.

Yep.  After your experience years ago I wouldn't buy a used dash pad unless I needed one to put a cover on.  It is simply a matter of when it cracks, not if.

Yep, what a bad lesson to learn, but I'm just glad I only paid $50 and it came with the whole interior minus the door panels which I bought later for $20.

I couldn't imagine paying $150+ and having it crack during shipping.
