1965 mustang drooping dash panel

Asked by GuruV7XT9 Sep 28, 2018 at 09:25 AM about the 1965 Ford Mustang Coupe RWD

Question type: General

The original dash panel in my 1965 mustang has DROOPED over the years, as so many have . Short of replacing the whole panel ,which I understand can be a real pain , are there any good "shells" out there that I can just install over the original panel and make it look good? I have seen some pretty bad reviews on some of these "shells". thanks

I should have said dash PAD instead of dash panel. Sorry I don't have a photo but I imagine you have seen those pads that droop like mine. Over years of sitting in the hot sun the pad extensions have just dropped down. You can push them back up but they won't stay .Maybe that was a problem with only the very early mustangs. But I've read the instructions on how to replace the pad and it entails tearing the whole car apart up front and I don't want to do that so I guess I'll just have to live with it !! thanks anyway
