Hello, I found a dash panel I like but cannot find where I found it. Any of you recognize this dash? I would like to buy one.
Thank you for your help.

I bet that's a one off fabricated dash. looks like somebody took 1/8 aluminum cut to shape and polished.

If you can create a CAD drawing, you can get a quote from one of these places to for material and cutting. Great way to get custom parts, SendCut has a minimum order of $29 and 3-day shipping.

There are a wide variety of shops making dash (gauge) panels. Some that I've kept on file:
https://www.southernrods.com (they call them dash panels)
Lokar makes some, available from Jegs (who calls them dash inserts), etc.: https://www.jegs.com/p/Lokar/Lokar-Goolsby-Edition-Aluminum-Dash-Insert/2952872/10002/-1
If you like the engine turned finish, FPM Metals offers a wide variety - available in different swirl sizes: https://www.fpmmetals.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Street-Rod-Price-List.pdf
Also I've found some nice ones on eBay, but don't have a current link - try searching for "Universal Dash Panel Hot Rod".

Reckerd,

Yes, I made that dash for my 33 as well as matching door panels. Pretty straight forward to make. It is 1/8” aluminum with the gauge and switch holes drilled and powder coated silver. One caveat is it is not flat, there is a curve in both dimensions but I was able to do that by hand. The door panels are a bit more tricky because of the complex bends to get it to fit without stress. I can get more pics of you need them or you can go to Factory Five’s website and search for my name. They had their professional photographer take a bunch of pics. Of all the cars I built, that is the one I miss the most.

Thx,

Henry
