I assume you're not going with an OEM?

You could use something like this,

Dash Board Extension 1953-1956

I used a dash extension to put my ac controls and vents in so I could keep a stock looking dash.
My radio is under the seat.

Here is one of the slicker setups...electronics under the seat and the control on the back of the visor. Yes, the faceplate is still removable.
