Good jokes from all of you, but seriously, let's help the guy out here:-)
Someone else wrote recently about changing out an AD dash & I've looked at
mine (butchered radio cutouts) & it involves cutting out spot welds &
welding (spot or otherwise) back in the new (except for 2 bolts-1 at each
side underneath). If you already have the glass out & the cab is not
painted yet (that you would have to redo) I'd say go for it. Comments
anyone else?
