64-66 Gauge panel

Does anyone know if a 1964-66 GMC gauge panel will fit into a 64-66 Chevy truck panel area?
I want to move my light, choke, Key holes all down lower out of the panel area and put in after market gauges. I have after market gauges now but I dont like the way the smaller ones are setting and I have always wanted to move my keys and such lower below the panel its self..

The GMC gauge panel won't fit in a Chevy dash, they're a bit longer.

and they're a different shape, the key and knobs aren't part of the panel but below it on the dash itself. the panel shape is flat/square all the way around unlike the chevy one which has an angle at the bottom, so the mounting holes are different as well.

You should see that dash now. Completely changed from the "Hooker Red". Looks sweet. Need more pics of it Ol_Skool ;-)
