59/60 Impala Dash in a 86 Buick Regal

[Tim Baillie]

We are finally getting more work done to the interior of our demo car.

HERE is the link to show the Impala dash being modified to fit.

We had to take 2 1/2" off either side and shaved nearly 3" off the back of the dash to make it fit. Once this was trimmed it slide right in.

We are smoothing and shaving the dash so that the only thing left on it will be the gauge housings and the glove box (which will be motorized so no lock will be visible). All the moulding and holes will be filled.

The stock center dash speaker location will be left, a motorized LCD will lift up from this location. All the gauges will be the Dakota Digtal "Solarix" series with the chrome bezels.

The entire dash will then be painted Satin black which will match the custome console we are going to build for the car.

wow, cool. nice, i like it, youll have that dash that no other car of your year has.
i want to stuff a 65 monaco dash in my 64 dart. the monaco was a bigger car so the dash would have to be cut in a few places. what do ya think, is this doable (provided i have someone with the proper skills do it)?
the orange dash is the monacos.
