After many hours of pulling hair out and staring at my dash...I was cutting it ,..and then I wasn't...then I was...well now for SURE I am not. I have made a fiberglass stereo head unit cowl that will conform to the dash right under the heater controls. It's formed up now and I'm on the way to go get more resin. My 71' has the original uncut dash and was a Radio Delete Truck so my cowl has no antenna hole in it. Just didn't seem right to cut the dash, when nothing else has been cut to put this modern stereo in. Pics...coming soon!
