72 cutlass dash help!!
My dash cracked, I tore the dash out, the housing on the outside is still good, but I need every other piece but I don't know what to order? Especially the piece where the radio sits? Can anyone help?

Too bad about the damage to the dash. That's EXACTLY why you need a Cutlass Assembly Manual for your car. It has great exploded view details showing how the car is supposed to be built and taken apart.
The parts you seek are interchangeable with any of the 70-72 Olds A bodies. That means f85, Cutlass, Cutlass S, Cutlass Supreme and Vista Cruiser.
The dash is made up of several components
1 - the dashpad
2 - the intermediate dash ( the piece you broke that also houses the radio)
3 - the gauge bezel
4 - ashtray door
5 - glove box door.
Also some info about the replacement parts. You can buy dyes or SEM paint to match the color of your interior. That means that you don't need to have a specific color replacement part, it can be painted like it was from the factory. Sounds like you have the parts guys on standby; good luck with your project. Post some pics of the car and 'carnage'?
