    68 Dashtop. ??

    Is the 68 dash top different to the earlier SWB one's.? I am trying to source one for a 68 car and would appreciate some pointers if there are several types.

    Thanks in advance.

    Dave, As stated above; two piece dash for 68`-only. The flat portion of the dash where the speaker grill is located is a continuous one - piece all the way across the dash! The front part of the dash facing the inner cabin is also of one piece , stretching across the entire car, door to door....cliff,

    Thanks for the reply's. It is the front section that will be the "hard to find" part. The rear looks pretty simple to find.
