67-68 F-body dash ideas?

[ricer]

I am thinking about cutting out my dash (from D-side door to just before the middle section). What i was tossing around was designing a dash similar to the 69 just on a smaller (not as wide) scale.

My only issue that i haven't figured out yet was how to attach it. Weld in or make it removable or make just the gauge section removable to access the wires/etc.

Anyone ever design something different, or have any other ideas on possible layouts?
