Yes, the dash panel on the 125 was made of tin with a embosed texture and colored blue, but many have faded away to just the natual tin with the black letting. I have a second 125 that I will be selling shortly that has a good original blue tin dash on it. This one was faded away and has a reproduction decal installed on it for now. I have its original tin that another Cub Cadet friend is going to try and restore for me. I have the 125 back operational now, still have to finish swapping over some options from the other tractor to this one. Then its time to restore the mower deck. Cheers Mike
