I bought a whole dash from a guy for my '62, and was greatful for it! Someone either used a can opener or a fire axe on my radio area, the ash tray mount is worn out from use, and the opening around the gauge cluster seems to have a little "slop" around it... just not a tight fit for the cluster, like it is in other dashes. It's also got a couple extra holes drilled in the top of it for a dash-mounted driver's fan (like a bus).
The dash I bought is beautiful, and I'm looking forward to the day I yank all the glass for paint and can put that new dash in.
Plus, with those big "twin cowls" you might find a hot rodder who wants to put it in an earlier rod project. I'm going to cut the glovebox cowl out, flip it upside down, narrow it, and weld it under the dash so it connects to the two cowls, giving me a cubby storage area below the dash using factory contours and shapes.
