67 metal dash replacement? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

arcticman · 01-09-2019, 11:58 PM

hello everyone
Can someone tell me if the dash is the same part from 67 thru 72 no A/C ? Im not refering to the pad but the steel part that bolts to the lt and rt inner posts.
thanks for the help.

my 67 is a radio delete truck but someone install a C/B, I would prefer to install a clean replacement versus a patch or section

67 would be a 1 year only. 68 and up would work, but would not be correct.

thanks guys can you tell me what the difference is?

Smaller hole for ignition switch and where cig lighter mounts is flat.

The ashtray is different too but i think its interchangeable

The 67 68 dashes have slightly modified holes for the headlight and wiper switches and in different locations.

just keep in mind it is also spot welded all the way across the base of the windshield. so can see once the WS has been removed. still not a hard thing to replace.

FWIW, if you want to keep it correct for '67, you can take a later dash & mod the holes for the switches, fill/smooth the cigar lighter opening. Easy work, you can do it with the dash on the work bench. When you're done, no one will be the wiser. (unless you take pics & show us - and you should!)

You can cut it under the dash pad and not mess with the windshield. Protect it w a welding blanket though
