70 Swinger Dash Question

Since Ive had my dash bezel out, Ive discovered that my dash frame was/is built for a thumbwheel, some previous owner butchered it to put in a knob style. I guess I either have to find a proper replacement frame, or get someone to do some welding to my existing one, which in itself may be very difficult when I dont know how the proper frame is supposed to look, like I said, mine is butchered up behind the bezel so I cant tell :mad:
