Yeah, how'd you do the dash?
 
The dash is a combo of a 72 and 67 dash cut up and combined. The top rail is a reformed rear cockpit rail. The part that caught me by surprise was how much padding was on the dash. The first attempt looked good until i tried to install the radio console. BIG gap! I had to hand form the curved piece that goes in that gap and weld it in place. I made the glove box liner out of aluminium siding material and it is pretty shallow.Just enough for a pair of driving gloves and the registration papers. I have a couple huimderd miles on the car and its running great. I plan on taking it to the CMP event in Kershaw SC this saturday. We may bring out our black 67 and drive it down also.
 
No question about it. That dash should have been installed at the factory.

Is an abslutely superb job.
