That would be awesome. I'm thinking this will be the hardest part to find. Thanks. |
Joel aka Boo_Koo_Z up in Washington has a couple listed in the classifieds right now. They've still got the dash attached, but you could always have him cut that part out, to save some weight on shipping.  |
I looked at the pieces Boo_Koo_Z has, and it appears that the vents are flush with the sheet metal of the cowl. Mine are sunken in. What year did that change? |
Those pieces changed a few times over the years. The first style was used thru 64 I believe (it might have been used longer (like on Squares), but I'm not sure), and it had a single indent. The next style was 2 indents for each of the fresh air boxes, that was used from 65 to 67 I believe. Then that no-indent style started, and was used to 70. After that, the openings changed but it was still flat.
Like I said, I'm not sure when the indents changed thru the years (cut off dates), as my 65 Notch uses the 2 indent style, while my son's 65 Square used the long indent. I think John J's 66 Square also uses the single indent.

Just to make it a little more confusing:
I have a 65 N that has one indent (early 65) and I have a mid-year 65 S that has two indents. |

That's why I say it's hard to know for sure what the cut off dates are.

| Both my notches have the single indent, but the peice that I have for parts is smooth, but has the slider fresh air controls and had a wrap around dash as well. What year(s) would that be for? It is in really nice shape, if Bliss doesnt want it |

It would make sense if it were model specific but that doesn't appear to be the case. |

Agreed. But I think Squares used that single indent longer, or at least it seems that way. I don't know IF the "N" versus "S" deal comes into play either.
