67 Camaro Build

[7dee2]

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.

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

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.

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.

The wiper motor is installed, but the supplied wiper motor Phillips head screws were junk (good tight fit but the screw heads are trying to strip out) I’ll replace them later with better hardware. I tested the motor earlier when I first received it but I wanted to test the motor and trans in the car. AOK, it looks like it’s going to work out fine, no issues other than the mounting hardware. Good instructions, but beware it wires up completely different than the factory WW motor and switch (ground vs positive switching).
