Re: trying to put in 55 chevy truck dash

my 2 cents from having done dash swap in a nova before. Start with the column location. Everything drives from that. you need the gauge centered of the column. Then see how to adjust the ends to match the A pillar. If you cant find a second dash to give up patches, you'll have to fabricate the bends. I would also say if it was me, I'd try to run the countour of the center all the way to the ends and not have any wrap on the ends. the A pillars dont support it. Take your time and good luck!!
