1960 Oldsmobile Dash. Split dash?

I'm helping a friend out in painting his 1960 oldsmobile dash. He is looking to do a mild custom flake paint job and I recommended for him to have his dash completely removed. While looking at pictures and diagrams I noticed that this dash is basically a two piece dash in which the front piece has a dash pad on top.

Two questions... maybe a third

1. If I was to eliminate this dash pad and paint the entire top surface of both pieces, is the gap between both too wide and look bad if painted? Any holes left after removing the dash pad? If anyone has any pictures I would greatly appreciate it.

2. How difficult is it to remove the two complete dash pieces?

Im attaching some pictures for reference. They are not mine just borrowed them from a forum that looks to be closed.
