I am trying to repair the area around the windshield on my '69 442. the area is so rusted that I cannot really determine how the dash panel is to interface around the corners (where the windshield goes vertical). I see where the dash will spot weld to the cowl panel area- but too rusted on the sides. The car is in great shape other than terrible rust through on front and rear window channels. There are no reproduction pieces for this that I can tell. If anyone has a picture of or good description (I think all A-bodies of that year should at least be similar). I would really appreciate it.

Thanks, Jon

Here's a video we did replacing an entire dash from a donor car on a '71 Olds... it's actually quicker than trying to piece one together. Many western yards have Cutlasses floating around for good donors. Hope it helps.
