For the column you can buy one from Flaming River. Is there any year or model dash you like in particular. One if you had the chance to swap in you would use?

I seldom find a dash that hasn't been hacked. These dashes, or at least the hacked part, in cross section are roughly a quarter of a round circle.
Last time I used the top section of a trashed fender from the same truck. Anything that is the right gauge metal and is at least semi-curved.
Weld one entire long edge first and push in the other lenthwise edge and weld.
This allows me to have the clean, smoothed look or go in and add holes were needed.
Aside from the gauge benzel, I don't care for the stock dash.
