I wish I would have taken more pictures of the install also. It really wasn't that difficult at all. Once I removed the factory metal dash structure there was no turning back. I centered the column opening on the 64-66 dash on my column and made two brackets on each side that mounted where the 81 dash bolted to the cab. After that it just adding metal to each side to match the windshield curve, etc. I didn't pull the windshield, but mine is not welded to the windshield frame either.
If any one wants some pictures of how I mounted it I can take some, or anything else that may be of help.
