[T3] Dash install


Hello everyone
 I thought I would give an update on my 1966 fasty
dash install. I bought the dash from Kustom1
wharehouse. It looked great. I did a test fit on the
gages, and the dash was too thick. The gages did not
fit right. The springs on the side of the gages would
not pop out and hold it onto the car. I had to get
some exacto knives and cut away about a 1/4" strip off
the inside of the dash. It took me two days of slowly
cutting the dash. I put it in and the screw holes and
the dash chrome strip holes all lined up! it was
amazing! It took some effort but it was worth it. I
didn't have to remove the steering wheel either. 
thanks Russ for your advice on how to do this. I took
my time and it looks great!
thanks again
