1977 cutlass Dash
Does anyone know if a dash from a 1975 cutlass will fit my 1977 cutlass along with the door panels and any other interior trim. or does anyone know where I can get the dash fixed on my 77 cutlass. Just bought it and starting the restoration process. Any help would be great. thanks

The short answer is "yes"; albeit, it won't be "correct" for your '77. In fact, '73-'77 dashes are all interchangeable as far as fit. You don't want to know what it would cost to have yours refurbished...so, finding a nice used one is a great option.
As far as other interior pcs, most all of that is interchangeable as far as fitting your '77. But again, styles can vary according to year & model/body style and may not be "correct" for your '77. Matter of fact, many interior pcs (door panels, kick panels, upper headliner plastic trims, sail panel trims, headliners, sunvisors and even seats can be swapped with other GM "A" bodies of the same era; again, if you aren't concerned with "correctness" for your '77.
Congrats on your new acquisition and have fun with the restoration. It will get frustrating at times as repro and nice used parts are hard to come by. But, they are out there if you're patient in your searches. If you need help, feel free to ask.
