Marv,

Do I understand that you are going to replace the 3 pieces with 1 solid
piece?  If so, I don't know that I'd recommend that.  It was made in 3
pieces for a reason.  I personally like the access I get by just removing
the center piece of the dash.

Also, in the past there has been discussion about a solid piece of wood 
warpping as opposed to the plywood backing and the vanieer covering.

But what the hay,  try it, you may be on to something.

I know I tought I'd do that with the floor boards on my Morgan.  Turns out,
the factory knew what they were doing when they made the floor boards in
several pieces.  I ended up having to cut my solid piece in two to get things
to fit right.
