Lots of work on Brad's part ... pure enjoyment (and references) for you!

For helping keep this great
old truck web site

Clearly mark the borders of the area of your dash that you want to replace. Make a paper template for the area you want, with "orientation markers" on a standard dash.
Post those photos here in "Parts Wanted". There are members here with unrestorable cabs/trucks, who might be willing to cut up their dash. Be ready to send your template to a responder who says they have clean cut-out area on their donor dash. The seller should send you clear photos of the dash area they intend to sell you. The seller should then make a copy of the template and return original template with the cut-out metal. That way the buyer/seller has a copy of what was ordered and what was bought/sent.
If I still lived in upstate NY, I'd first check with Bob Adler in Stephentown, NY - I do not know if he sells cut-outs, but I know he has a lot of 47-55 cabs.
