Do you think this will salvage the dash panel? It will ultimately be covered in black padding.

Sometimes I wonder why I do the things I do
Yes. It is an effective repair. Just make sure you sand all surfaces that will be epoxied/glued/bondo'd, etc. We have all done it. It takes a REAL man to admit it.
