I recently picked up a DSE dash for my new 69 build its a quality piece, that becomes kind of a structural part of the whole dash assembly. Looked like theres a fair amount of tig welding that goes into the fab of that part, it certainly has a lot of bends in it.

No doubt its an insanely nice piece. Its also the most elegant and simple of them. Keep in mind when I refer to Covan's I'm not referring to the old "Covan's Classic" line of parts. John abandoned that company after it was bought from him and quality went to hell. I'm referring to Covan's new company. Higher quality product...
