1956 F100 dash
I recently purchased a 1956 F100 and the dash was really cut up. The entire instument cluster housing area as well as a large hunk of dash underneath was sawed out. Could anyone tell me if this can be repaired or should I try to purchase another 56 dash?
Thanks,
Glen

If you are going to need to replace your dash, consider obtaining a '56 Ford Passenger Car dash and welding it in. It has a very nice appearance and sets you up for round gauges.
