I'm working on the dash assembly. Everything is located and in place including the wire harness routing. Looks like I will need to locate a plastic "mirror" trim ring for the remote mirror control.
All will need to come back apart so I can repaint the dash frame.
The first repaint, done a couple of years ago is not up to standards.
Then I will install the dash and complete wiring harness. Going to be a big job but I am looking forward to it.

The paint was good but needed better preparation. I've stripped it to bare metal. and will acid etch the metal and then a acid etch primer.
Some filler primer and some more sanding. Then ready to paint and assemble.

I had to have my hood repainted for the 2nd time but the paint has a some pearl in it this time. He wants to redo the hood again. I told him its fine the way it is you are not doing this again . The hood was stripped to the metal

It took most of the week to strip and prep the dash frame and parts.
etched, premiered, painted and cleared yesterday.
Ill get busy assembling and installing it after the Battleship show this weekend.

Everything didn't go so smooth. The vent hole in the lid of the paint gun clogged and blew off..... the results......
Looks like he robbed a bank and the dye packet exploded!

I've been dragging my feet on the posts for awhile. Lots getting done but not much to exciting to look at. I plan to mate the dash and wiring harness to the car tomorrow.
