dash board removal

[bluefoxamazone]

any idea how a dashboard easily can be removed from a 53 cranbrook (conv). I see two bolts on each side but are there more? or is there somekind of manual available?

Thanks for helping and a Happy Newyear!!

greetings from Belgium!!

Usually a series of fasteners hidden behind the windshield moulding.

As Young Ed says there are a set of fasteners hidden under the windscreen molding, also there is at least one at either end of the dash bottom corner and more than likely a couple on a bracket from the firewall that bolts onto the dash around the centre of the lower dash, also there is a bracket that holds the steering column onto the dash bottom and of course the various instrument connections, ie, water sending tube, oil line, and the various light wires, key start etc.........I just rechecked the 1946-53 Plymouth Service Manual and theres nothing that mentions the dash or even its removal that I can see.......andyd

Sometimes looking at the parts manual exploded diagram can help sort it out as well.

Don't forget cowl vent linkage.

Still there on a '53?
