Not exactly.
Facelift dash (98 on) will not bolt to the early shell. The dash mounting tabs attached to the firewall are closer together. These need to cut off and re-welded in the correct location (easier said than done) Also the hole in the firewall for the steering column is too small for the 1998 column to fit through. Late model steering column must be used with late model loom.
In short, stick with a 1996 or earlier 1/2 cut, much easier.
