832's are usually betweem 500-800 depending on the date. Never seen one go for 1000.

That's a nice dash! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Big thing with the Bird dashes is to have one where the radio area wasn't hacked out at some point over the past 40+ years for an aftermarket radio. Yours looks intact (that's the horizontal plastic in the radio hole area). The rectangular cutout between the tach and wiper switch is for the power top switch. All Firebirds had 160 mph speedos.

The entire dash, along with the gauges, are all reproduced now, but of course people will pay a premium for original GM stuff as opposed to the cheap Taiwanese crap that parts houses sell now.

I passed on a setup exactly like this for $200 around 10 years ago. And in fact the guy took the dash to swap meets and there were no takers! Now of course they're worth a bit of money, as 69 Birds are selling for $30K-$75K at auction, and Trans Am's went from $30K cars to $80K cars in about 5 years.

Thanks for all the input guys. I posted a bunch of the parts on Ebay. As I said earlier, this post was not meant to be a classified ad. If posting the link to the ebay ad here is inapproapriate and it needs to be removed I completely understand. That said, here is a link to the parts for those who want to see how close they were to current value:
