Dash pics?

Contemplating grafting a 60-66 dash into the truck, imo its alot cleaner looking than the original 67-72 dash and gauge clusters. That being said, are there differences between them? and any measurements? Bing didnt really turn up anything helpful. Thanks guys.

You used bing and not Google that's why.. Lol but I would think there is a little difference but if you can fabricate than you should have no problem making it fit for sure..

Re: Dash pics?

I believe Chevy dashboards are basically the same from 1960-63 (double hump) and 64-66 was flat on top. GMC had a single hump on the driver side for all of 60-66, however the original cluster was a small gauge panel in the middle of a sheet metal pan, and the later version filled up the entire cluster area with a much better looking plastic assembly.

Here are examples of the four flavors:

1960-63(?) Chevy



1964-66 Chevy



1960-61 GMC



1962(?) - 66 GMC



Google Images is the easiest way to obtain photos of anything on a web search. Good luck.
