Mike,
I'm in the middle of redbuilding the heating and A/C ducting and controls on my '67 Tempest Sport Coupe and I've removed the dash pad and instruments from my car to get better access. You don't really need to remove the instrument panel to remove the dash pad. There are 5 trim screws up under the dash overhang and these serve two functions: to hold up the upper half of the instrument panel and to hold down the dash pad. What you will have to remove is the glove box as there are two trim retaining nuts hidden up and behind that portion of the dash....they are above the "Tempest" trim panel that runs across that section of the dash. You might find that the 5 nylon screw retainers under the instrument panel side are cacked/stipped/broken.... replacements can be bought (thru Performance Years? and Ames). Hope this helps.
Mike
