Does anyone know of any sites that would show me how to pull my dash from the 74RR without removing the windshield. ILL pull the entire fame and everything if thats what it takes but not the windshield. (ill take a pop up book at this point)
 
you can get to without removing the windshield,remove the front speaker cover,there will be 4 small bolts that you remove,then disconnect the wiring harness from the firewall,disconnect the door jam plugs,and the vent cables,heater wiring,drop the steering column to the floor,disconnect the brake wires(under steering column)then remove kick panels,there are 2 bolts 1 each side that hold the dash frame in place,disconnect the speedo cable.make sure you have a extra person help that way the gauges cluster doesn't fall against the sterringcolumn,then take the dash outing flip it over remove the dash pad nuts.i might have forgot something but that is basically
it.
 
I think 72 Blue basically has it. I did this for my 73 (without removing the windshield).

Just be aware this is NOT a small job!!!

......how about a 1967 Coronet?....hehe
 
67 Coronet you need to pull the windshield first

I've pulled at least four dashpads over the years, from '66 and '67 Coronets. Never pulled the glass on any of them. The entire dash structure - oh, hell, yes, pull that glass!
