Mopowers' 66 Dart Build
I just thought I'd post some pics of the dash in my 66. Some people might not like the fact that I cut it up, but I think it turned out quite nice. I still need to add the gauges and toggle switches obviously. What do ya think?
I didn't have a big enough piece of sheet metal, so I had to use 2 pieces.
I don't smoke
Underside:
Final product:
From this:
To this:
I decided to go with two pieces of aluminum instead of 1 just in case I have to change or do any work to the toggle switch panel on the right, I don't have to take the whole thing down. I also welded up the holes on the right side of the dash and the glove box to get rid of the trim pieces for a cleaner look
Here are some extra random shots of some other work that was done while the dash was out:
BEFORE (notice the block off plates for where the wipers go):
AFTER:
no more wiper motor bracket. Also made a couple block off plates for where the cowl vent boxes hook to. Painted it with Zero-Rust.
