Good luck with the mod!
That would be ideal but unfortunately its not everyday you come across a 55-59 truck dash by itself. Ive been surfin craigslist for months and this is the first one ive seen on there and i got extremely lucky its only 30 min away. Luckily i have a dad who has done dash swaps before so he can help me. The gap will only be like 3-4 inches so hopefully it wont be too bad, but dont get me wrong, if i come across another one at a swap meet or somethin ill snatch it up. Anyway if all goes well ill have my dash by this time toomarrow. So hope fully i can get it home and you guys will have a thread to look forward too
