I still need to do some finish work on the metal.
My Uncle is a machinist so he made me a dash panel that resembles the 1972 panel, but it's 2 inches taller to fit the 2003 gauge cluster. Our plan is to remove the inner part of his panel, and make a plate that will bolt to his panel. We have not done that yet. I plan on finding some wood grain decals to put on it so it matches the glove box door. The truck will get all the Sierra Grande trim on it.
Here is the panel.
