There is a "trick" to getting behind the instrument gauges if you choose to use it. The panel in my '39 110 that holds my speedo looks like the gove box in reverse. I believe this was to make manufacture easier for right hand steers. The panel even has the mounting holes for the swing down hinges for the glove box. I braded hinges to this panel, got them at Home Depot for a buck, and made the opening latch from a spare gove box latch. The hole for the dash dimmer is the one they used for the right hand steer. Now if I need to replace a dash lamp or service a wire, I push the latch and I'm in.
