If you are referring to the piece that connects the lower dash support to 
the upper dash, I can send you a dimensioned plan (in PDF format) that I 
drew up for one and took to a machine shop for fabrication.  It's not 
identical to the original (which I ruined trying to modify to fit my 
stereo), but it's close.  You can leave it blank if you don't plan to fit a 
stereo, or modify it to fit a particular stereo.

The original one's I've seen were all cut out for a radio.  If a radio 
wasn't installed, they had some sort of blanking plate mounted in front of 
the hole.
