Default C2 dash question
I looked at a C2 dash for sale( entire dash, door to door) and it had no holes in it for the heater controls,... Would any come this way from the factory??

No. All dash frames had heater control holes. However NOS would not have the radio hole cut out

I looked at it again and NO radio hole and no holes for heater controls... Is that how an NOS would come?\
Is there a chance someone " customized " this and fillled the holes???

Well, if they did fill in the holes - It would be more-than-likely visible on the backside.

Can you get a pic of the backside?

Looking at a pic of some parts for sale so no other picture... I will probably go see this and some other parts in a couple of weeks..
If its a " heater delete" thing, does that make this dash more valuable or more likely the seller thinks he has something special?? If so I might pass on it....
My frankenstein restomod will have a heater and radio so I would have to cut the holes in it for my use....
thanks for the help everyone...

No, I can't say that.... Based on what I can see in most of the other areas it looks stock, but I am a bit new to C2 corvettes....

Sure looks like a GM dash (except for lack of heater holes). Looks like it’s been in storage or use for a while. It will be interesting to hear what you find out.
