Hacking up dashes

When I bought my 72 Duster it came from Az. via Ebay auction When the car arrived the dash was hacked to death and bondoed into a race car type dash...The radio, cluster,switches, complete wiring harness and heater controls were gone and there was a huge hole under the bondo and cardboard..The car was listed as a complete vehicle..Live and learn...So know I resurfaced the face of the dash with stainless steel Installed white faced gauges speedometer and tach.. Lighted Toggle switches For a NASCAR look...And wired the whole car..It looks good but is not a show car..Why it was hacked up I have no idea but at 41 year old as a driver I dont really care... It is all a matter of what you are looking for.. Its your car if its done right I'm sure it will look good and make for a better ride...Bill
