Need dimensions of stock dash openings for stock radio
Does anyone have or would be willing to provide the radio dash opening dimensions for the stock radio on a 72 Chevy Pickup/Blazer/Suburban dash?
I'm looking for 6 dimensions (A through F) shown in the first two attachments. I'm working on having a bezel machined from aluminum that will allow installation of an original shaft radio into a hacked single din opening. If this looks clean and works well as I expect it will, it will save me from having to fabricate and weld in sheet metal to fix the cut radio opening. Thanks for your help!

You mean like this? I can get the measurements when I get home. You can check page 12 of my WMB thread for more info.

That's is exactly what I was attempting to accomplish. That looks really nice. Nice write up in your WMB thread. Could you provide the dimensions when you get a chance? I plan on milling one from 1/4" aluminum, fastening it from behind with four machine screws then paint it to match the paint on the dash. However, I like the low profile of look of yours- simple and clean.
