Re: any1 ever used the dash out of a later model truck?

I love the look of the newer 99+ dashes....but I love the look of my original dash minus the cracks....so torn

Re: any1 ever used the dash out of a later model truck?

I geuss Im more traditional. I love the 99+ dash.....in a 99+ truck
one of the things I like about older cars & trucks, is the factory old dashes. I have a friend that modified the dash in his 66 Chevelle with all Autometer gauges, I personally think he got rid of one of the nicest looking dashes GM ever produced. but its just me. I do however agree about the 88-95 dashes are some of the fugliest, but they can be spruced up pretty easily.

Agreed 100%

I love my old dash, and being that it's still in good shape minus a few small cracks, I plan on keeping it for a while. I'll change up the guages a little here and there, but the overall design is staying the same!
