I'm looking at transplanting a secret dash into 50/50, but don't have the car to measure from so...
What is the width of a 68 dash? Depth would be nice too, if ya can grab it..

Width, 55" A pillar to A pillar at top.
(No molding or dash pad installed)
Depth, 10" away from windshield at center.
68 coupe, hope this helps.

Perfect, thank you Roger.
I'm looking at transplanting a dash that is 53-1/2" wide from pillar to pillar, and 16" from window to edge of dash. I think that with a full A pillar roll bar going down the car, it will make up the 1-1/2" that is lacking, plus my engine is 6" back into the firewall, and this will give me more depth to fit everything.
