Jon:
The European 1962-71 dashboard looks to be the same as the US 1962-67
design. There may be a slight difference in the headlight switch holes, as
only the 1967 US spec dash had the push pull headlight switch. This is a
minor point, and I am pretty sure the switch locations can be changed
without problem. (the flat is located in a different position if I recall)
Other than that, the dash should bolt in place. I take it that you have the
ability to change the pedal box, hydraulic lines, rack and move the wiring
around.
