So the instrument panel is out, 3 bolts at the top are out, 1 nut either side and 1 beside the steering column are out and heater ducts are disconnected. I was hop...

Hi Everyone I'm new to this forum and I'm busy trying to get my '87 Brumby on the road. I want to remove the dash to do some welding but I'm having a bit of trouble.
