What do do with old 67-72 dash insert? (7-hole)
Hey y'all, I've been cleaning out the shop and pulled this relic out of a corner.
There's no freebie section and I can't post it in the parts area (sub expired), should I feel bad about throwing it in the garbage? I'm not the creative type, so I can't think of anything fun to do. We have anyone on the forum who rebuilds dashes that could use it? I can't remember who back in the day was refurb'ing dashes. Not looking for money. Just a good home where it may get used.

I hear you. I have a bunch of parts for cars that I've had but are long gone. A lot are new in the box. I have no use for them but I can't bear to throw them out. Hopefully someone can use it.
Member TBONE1964 is a dash guy. Maybe he might want it.

Hope you can find a home for it. I can't throw out parts either. Still have OEM mirrors, front bumper, AM radio, air cleaner, points-type distributor..... and maybe a few other things that have been replaced on my K20 over the years.
If I ever get rid of the truck, those parts just might go with it.

Just a thought. Why not keep it and carefully cut out temperature and put it where everyone puts the vac gauge. Use it for a trans temp gauge?

I'm getting ready to overhaul my shop space. Can't make it any bigger, but I can at least make it better. In the process, I've unearthed a few parts. Some I sent to another member here. Had I found this, I would've sent it also. But ... I'll ping TBONE, thanks for the suggestion Paul.

I always try to include parts with anything I sell. The problem is if I can find them .

Re: What do do with old 67-72 dash insert? (7-hole)
In the 60-66 message board, there's a thread called the "paying it forward" thread. It's a thread for doing exactly what you want to do with this lens, give it to someone who can use it. There might be one for the 67-72 section, but if not, you can start a thread in the 67-72 message board about your desire to give it to someone.
