Yeah, if you don't mind drilling some holes in your 65 steel dash. Why do you want to do this?

I have replied to this elsewhere-

The 66 pad requires holes in the dash metal that will ruin it, or at least require re-welding if you ever get the right pad. And the appearance of the two pads is quite different, small children could tell you had the wrong pad. And if you get the right pad, you don't have to drill any holes.

A new pad will cost you about $125, and a good one about $100 more than that.
