When I pulled mine to fix the cluster just after I got it, the poor thing had suffered such an Indignity in the past that the pad was in thirteen (13) distinct pieces.
Put a little gaff tape on it just to keep it from being so floppy on the way back in.

Wow, that is a really clean looking interior. Love the wood dash too. Reminds me of my old 97' 850 GLT which had the same dash.

Nice find for sure.
