Fiberglass 59-60 Impala Dash. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

This would be cool for a custom truck. Glass is alot easier to mod than steel, and your not hacking all the Impalas up to get one! Not exactly cheap, but an option for a super custom look!

Dont think the wheels aint turning!! I seen the prototype and it blows a stock Imp. dash away! I have allways liked that style of dash reguardless of what its in! Crawfish season is coming in... time to start boiling to make some "dash" money!!

I have an OEM cluster to put in it if you decide to bite the bullet.

Thanks Ken i will keep you posted. I'm trying to get a buddy to buy your Blazer, i seen it at Stoked Out and that is a screaming deal!!

I think that dash would look killer in a square body! I've seen one of these in a '69 Camaro at a local car show.

Thanks bro. I hate to sell it, but I just don't see it ever getting finished.....by me....

That is kinda sweet seen a lot of metal dashes like that put in anything.Wish they made a 55 chevy style dash.

fast75 · 01-17-2009, 07:00 AM

looks great, but could you make it work in a square body?

Yes! If you checked out the link, they make that style to fit several cars. I just need to find out which one would fit closest and mod. from there. I have worked with fiberglass quite a bit, so i dont think it would be too bad! I need to replace my factory dash pad.....so why not replace the dash (that way of thinking gets me in alot of trouble!!)

Thats a super cool Camaro! Dash looks killer in there, thanks for posting up the pics!

I put an original one in my 86 and thought it was pretty simple. Got it off ebay for like $150. I would rather work with metal than fiberglass anyday. Just my opinion.

Here are some not so great pics. The dash is dirty and the gauges aren't on.

I painted the gauge pods today so I'll post some more this weekend.
