Smile new to Jaguar - 2001 XK8 Convertible

My father passed away last year and left his Jaguar to me and my wife. It very immaculate and low miles. It white with a navy top and has only a few little things that need to be addressed and one big one, the previous owner seems to have parked it in full sun with the top down a lot and dash is sort of hazed over. I have wood boat building experience but would love to hear if anyone has attempted to refinish the wood parts in this type of Jag.
Thanks.
David

Hello, David,
I'm sorry about how you got your Jag, but I'm glad you got.
I hope you're able to get into Pristine condition as it deserves.
