Hi Randy,
Man, that dash was ugly - the "retrofit" sure makes for an improvement. Talk about CB radios - I finally sold mine at a swap meet last fall. Now - what gauges are you using - most of the mfrs have a 4 in 1 that sure would look nice - my preference is Classic Gauges though I'll be using VDO's - simply because Classic didn't have the smaller diameter speedo and tach that I wanted. Best would be retrofitted OEMs (IMO) for yours.

The front of the frame is looking good - but looked better with the engine in place

It has been hottern' the hinges of h@%% with high humidity here and slowing things down but I still am trying to get an hour or so on the car every day. The fenders, grille shell, gas tank, splash shields, cowl cover, running boards and dash are sitting ready for paint. I thought the doors were until I did a final guide coat and 600 grit sand an hour ago - oops, dammit, need some more glazing putty on a couple of places on each door - so tomorrow or Friday will see them ready for paint. Then, the main body gets finalized

I guess we are involved with minutae on our cars right now, without a lot of spectacular changes (well except for maybe a major dashboard mod)is why we have spread out our discussion. I'm still here every day and do participate some in the forum, but have cut way back - it's summer in the great Northeast and "other" things are happening.

Have a good one -

Dave
