    I think you're gonna have to remove the tank. Don't think you'll have room for any gauges behind it.

    memory says you will need to narrow it if it is a '32 made for a '32 truck...
    no trimming if it is a brookville '32 made for a '28-'29 car...
    pix of a '32 narrowed for a '30-'31 coupe if needed...

    The dash bolts right in with the stock holes, fits really good. I cut the bottom of my tank out to use the available space for gauges and electrical. I hope the pictures are helpful.[​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    I agree with what Aaron D. said. It fits right in,bolts up to the original holes. I cut out the gas tank so gauges would fit and used the Hanline gauge panel to finish it. the original top dash piece fits right over it. P1010359.JPG
