Looking for Lower Dash Assembly

Looking for a good blue lower dashboard for my 86. I don't need the dash pad, just the main lower dash as mine has a crack in it as shown in the picture.

Thanks, KG.

I should have asked why your ECU is laying on the transmission hump?

Haha, that’s from the previous owner troubleshooting it. Turns out the ECU is fine but the fuel pump not so much…

Yikes!

While talking about fuel systems (I know that's the other thread), the Bullnose sending units have a totally different resistance range and it is backwards from the later sending units. And sending units are keyed to the tank, so you don't want to put a later unit in your tank or vice versa.

Re: Looking for Lower Dash Assembly

FYI on the dash it looks like you have factory AC and if so you will need a dash from an AC truck or it will not have the AC vents.

When I made my non-AC truck in to AC truck I had to use the AC dash because of the vents.
And the sad part was the PO broke the dash to remove the radio & HVAC controls so I had to fix that.

So being you are looking for an AC dash trying to find a good one and blue might be a reach?
I say get any color you can and use SEM paint & prep to match the blue.

After the dash repair I used the SEM prep & paint and really happy the way it came out.
