    Im going to build a 34 roadster with SAR body, and dont like the 32 style dash that came with the body.. I am thinking about putting in a sedan dash, my question is; Is there much difference/modification to make it fit??
    The body needs a little TLC, becouse it has burned, but I got it cheep.. :)

    Thanks

    Cut the top lip off the 32 style dash, cut the whole top roll off the 34 sedan dash, and weld the two together. Should be fairly convincing for a hot rod.

    I am with you... I don't like the 32 style dash either. My friend cut out the 32 and installed the 34 roadster dash without much work. SAR can help you as they have done some of these for customers. If you want to use the passenger car dash Alchemy has the right idea. Good luck and send us some photos.

    Thanks, I think I will try to use most 34
    parts for the project to make it look like a original ford..If the sedan dashboard is similar the roadster dash, I will go for that.:)

    Here is a picture of a 33 Roadster dash.

    The differance is that the gauges can be moved right to left.
    Otherwise its the sam as a 34.
