Default 84 dash issues

My 84 C$ has been stored for a few months and now when I start it the digital dash comes and goes. It will be completely dark then all the lights and gauges will light up completely before they start to actually register. Then after a few seconds they go dark again and start the process all over. It seems like the longer the car runs the quicker the transition reoccurs. Any suggestions?

There are some excellent threads about finicky dash lights. Sounds like a ground or loose wire. Check the power/fuses first then the display may need to come out.
