Re: Anybody parting out a 64-66 junk cab? Dash part needed.

I don't want to replace the dash, as this one isn't a restoration. Other than the previous owner's hack job, the dash is in great shape, and it's an A/C dash. My plan is to use the existing bolt holes that he drilled for the grille and make my own grill that exactly matches the original perforations. I plan to cut the repair section in the shape of a speaker grill and bond it to an 1/8" aluminum frame that's drilled and tapped for 10/32 attach studs. The finished product will have no visible bolts, will be color matched to the dash color, and appear like a floating section of the original speaker perforation. Trying to be stealthy and not do any more cutting or drilling. The previous owner LOVED to drill holes to mount stuff. I'm trying to hide them!!
