The left side has caught up to the right. I remembered thinking the arm rests look good without the ashtrays.

Re: 67 Camaro Build
[QUOTE=7dee2;9356314]Thanks, that is a good idea. Since the build thread is so far behind the actual build, I can tell you I ended up just using the OE pivot (from the donor car) with a new adjustable length rod and peddle.
You should post a pic of the differences. I didn't know or have forgotten (that's highly likely ) the pattern differences. Here is the differences, the 68 patter is a little more "fuzzy" or blurry, its not as a hard edge pattern. Pics are from SMS fabrics website. 68- 69-

Re: 67 Camaro Build
Thanks for posting, when you mentioned the difference I Googled it but only came up with the 69 patterns. Which seems to be more common when looking for Hounds Tooth covers/material.
Kilmat sound deadener going on the floor. I don’t know if I mentioned this before but I mainly use a thump test. If it sounds solid no need, if it doesn’t sound solid it gets some. Here’s a Fuel Pump Controller kit from Aeromotive that I decided to try. It should prolong the life of our fuel pump by varying its speed using a tach signal. Note: I ended up not being a fan of this controller, details to come later.

EXCELLENT plan ! Ash trays are no longer part of any vehicle interior anyway. I do like the clean appearance too. I'll be eliminating them, if I ever get to do interior...seems years away yet. |

Re: 67 Camaro Build
Ha, in hindsight I should’ve just gone with my initial idea. It does look better without them, plus with the rollbar I don’t think anyone will ever sit back there let alone light up.
Yep, I installed new ashtrays in the rear armrests right before putting them away. Prepped the roof for the final install of the weatherstripping channel. Just a few holes on the right side A-pillar got covered up from when Kelly (Perks) had installed the roof channel earlier (test fitting the side glass). A quick clearance with the die grinder, then a dab of paint, and it’ll be good to go.

Re: 67 Camaro Build
I'm back on building out the dash. Scuffed and painted the outer heater box in preparation for building out the heater. I stole this idea from the trucks and got me some jute padding for behind the dash (?). I don’t think the Camaros had this, but the trucks did. I really like a solid-feeling car/truck, not a tinny, rough feel, so extra effort here and there makes that happen.

Re: 67 Camaro Build
Getting closer, I don’t want to cover up any mounting locations or have it interfere with any of the dash components.

Re: 67 Camaro Build
I’ve applied the jute padding to about 2/3rds of the cowl’s underside using 3M 90 adhesive. It’s just too tight to try and apply any directly above the peddle bracket assembly. I’ll take a smaller piece and apply it later above the fuse box and left of the peddle bracket.

Re: 67 Camaro Build
I will do, thanks you guys, I appreciate it!
I don’t care for these foam gaskets but, they will work with some trimming. The new wiper transmission fits well and I'm preparing for the wiper motor install.
