I'm searching for some time a complete dash pad for a '66 Galaxie in black. Looks like nobody makes them. By any chance does anyone know if this part is being reproduced? I know about that covers that you lay down on top of the old dash pad, but I'm looking for the complete part for a friend.



Yep, I know this isn't a Y-Block related question in the United States, but here in Brazil it is

Our '67 to '83 Galaxies were based on the 1966 US. The ones made between 1967 and 1975 had Ys under their hoods.



Thanks in advance!!!

Were they 292's or 312's?

The cars made in 1967 and 1968, were 272s. The '69 had the 292 as an option, and from 1970 to 1975 all were 292s.

Check out the alternator bracket and the AC mounts. You could sell those to US Y-owners if you can still find them!

Or send us detailed pics so we can recreate them.

I have a spare alternator bracket. Will take some detailed pictures of the A/C support and post. will just change by camera's battery.

The A/C support is a Motorcraft original part, intended for the York compressor, I just intelled and adapter on it to use the sanden compressor.

Here are pictures of the alternator bracket.

Those are easy to find around here, unlike the A/C bracket, that's a lot harder.

If someone liked the alternator thing, I can part with it. I would only charge for the shipping.

Yes, I looked at Justdashes. Looks like they only have a "overlay" kind pad, I'm looking for the complete pad, with the foam, vinyl cover, and steel frame.
