Do I trashed my dash panel when I gutted my boat since it was cracked. I wish I wouldn't have. Does anyone know a nice replacement one that is a close fit from another boat? MOD EDITED My boat is a 77 ss
Not any boat junk yards in KC that I know of.
I really like the angled ones and don't want to make my own.
Thanks

What model of SS do you have, most 70's had a flat wood type dash panel with the V5 models like my 79 SS below being plastic formed.

Mine had a plastic one like yours just a tad different. It was cracked and at the time I thought I'd just get a different one. Now I wish I would have repaired it.

I basically took it to the shop the day I bought it and stripped her down to bare hull to leak test. I rushed that part a bit. Oh well.

Yeah mine was cracked too, I plastic welded the cracks, sanded lightly and painted it. The reason they cracked so easy is because they didn't have a brace. I fabbed up an AL brace that attaches to the rotary helm and the console front panel.
