1938 - 1939 - 1940 Dash board differences, are they interchangable.

[Scooting]

I would expect a 40 dash to be a bolt in.
Haven't done it myself but also see aftermarket dashes that fit 37-40.
Lets hear from someone with experience.

posted on the HAMB and someone noted the major issue is the crank out window on the '37 -'39 vs the Fixed on the '40+ but I have a fixed.. upon further digging into the receipts and invoices I have from the builder, I found the information on the dash that is in the car.

it's a '37 - '40 fixed windshield dash from Absolute Sheet Metal in AZ.

I am not fond of the setup, which is why I am looking to change it, since I have to remove it to rewire the car because frankly the wire job that was done scares me, it is truly hacked and electrical taped together.

so it appears the '40 will fit, my concern was the width between the "A" pillars, but it appears to be the same '37-'42
