<VV> Re: VirtualVairs digest: CORSA das with A/C outlets needed

[N. Joseph Potts]

Even if you get the detachable parts that constitute the Corsa dash, you'll
STILL have to cut holes in that part of the dash that is integral to the
body of your Corvair AND the donor. That's three holes - left, right and
center. If you get the left and right dash parts with the cutouts, you can
use them to show you where to cut your body (that's what I did). The center
register, if you get one, obviously won't tell you a lot about WHERE the
hole goes.
     Clark's Corvair offers templates to tell you where to cut these three
holes, and all the other holes involved in installing A/C. If you can't get
Corsa dash parts with the cutouts (they're rare), the templates will show
you where to cut THOSE parts, too, and since they're aluminum, they wouldn't
be hard to cut.
     You have or are putting A/C in this coupe you're "building"?
     Obviously, the right-hand piece is purely decorative, for use primarily
if you mean to "Corsa-ize" your 500 (or do you mean to leave it a 500 except
for Corsa instrumentation in the dash?).

I am building a '69 500 Coupe and want to put in a CORSA complete dash but
only with factory A/C outlets.  Please advise if you have and price.   I
need
the entire dash as it also has a center A/C outlet.  I also need a  good
close-up pic of any dash area showing where the A/C controls  are.

Thanks,
