Complete Dash Removal
I went to a wrecker and cut out a compete unmolested dash out of a 67. Only paid 10 bucks for it. It should make a nice wall hanging in my garage. I will get some pics.

Re: Complete Dash Removal
That sounds cool. I have seen dashes mounted at Brothers. I never thought about doing it in my garage...would be cool, I think.

Re: Complete Dash Removal
Here's some pics. I grabbed this Manual floor center hump also. I don't know if its worth anything, but I took it because I have seen so many cut up for other trannys and it looks all factory. Maybe I will sell it.

Re: Complete Dash Removal
It wasn't pretty. They are spot welded where the windshield is mounted at the bottom. The glass was still in so I decided to remove the pad and cut under the pad. Then there is three bolts in each side you have to remove , under the column 2 bolts. I used a cordless jigsaw to cut under the dash pad( that worked slick ) Remove the heater controls and all that stuff
 Then some grunting and groaning because the jigsaw doesn't cut into the corners, used some tin snips there and out she comes. .I figured with the extra parts that one accumulates over the years I could make a complete dash and hang it on my wall.

Re: Complete Dash Removal
It is actually very easy, there are like 30 or so spot welds that need to be drilled out and 2 bolts on either side up under the dash. Then it comes right out, just time consuming...Check the pics

Re: Complete Dash Removal
Here you go, mount some speakers and radio in it and have an original boom box hanging on the wall.
