Hello everyone,
I am looking for a upper cowl and dashboard assembly for a 1968 Cutlass 2door hardtop. My entire windshield channel and part of the metal dash are rotted beyond repair and the donor I purchased on Ebay is'nt any better. Any leads or info would be appreciated. Thanks.

I thought one or several sheet metal reproduction houses are stamping out the troublesome 68-72 A body cowl patches?
FYI I believe any 68-72 GM A-body has the same or very similar cowl area. The dash may be different where the pad attaches? Not 100% sure if the verts are the same but there’s more 2/4 door donors vs. verts anyway. Not a job for the meek. Its major surgery. Hotrod or Carcraft did a step by step on a 68 or 9 Chevelle vert a while back 07-08?
Check Sherman, Dynacorn, GoodMark etc… Or a good desert/ western junk yard

 

Check Chevelle parts suppliers. From previous experience you are better off replacing just that patch panel than working w/ factory panels (believe it or not). The firewall, cowl top, cowl "tub" & side panels are all layered & sandwiched & welded together. This is an extensive project dealing with all those seams whereas the patch panel would require much less work, just a little extra finish bodywork.
