I've got a 65. My Dad just called and said he is having problems taking the dash out. He said he took out (6 or so screws) and it was loose, but wouldn't come out. Are there any hidden screws/bolts/metaphysical attachments that hold it in there?

Also: Does anyone know where I can find a good manual for my 65? We're getting into the wiring and whatnot, and I need a good guide. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Ramblin' Stew

I assume by "dash" you mean "instrument cluster?" Well, the 65 is slightly different than the '62, but that one is just held in by the screws through the face and the instrument cables themselves.

As for the manual, you can get reproductions of the factory service manuals from most of the suppliers on the links page.

Try eBay for the manual. Often you can get originals for far less that the price of a reprint.
