Are you welding in the dash to replace the cab structure provided by the OEM dash?

I don't think there is a 59/60 impala with a dash left lol. Love that dash but haven't been able to find one. Seems they're pretty sought after. Gonna look awesome

sounds like there might be a ton of money to be made if you made a mold of that dash and started making FRP replicas. Would need to figure out how to "weld" in into place.
