Re: [PROJECT] Laidout53 Part II

Here are the details of the modifications that i made this weekend. First i started to mold the dash in. after that i worked on the door panels to make the dash flow into the doors better, so the dash doesnt look like an after thought. Next i modified the glove box dor so it matches the angle of the dash to again make it flow better.



Heres the pictures











Next I hand formed the door accent panels.










And the veiw thru the back window opening

Re: [PROJECT] Laidout53 Part II

And now for the glove box modification (hopefully im the first to do this, I think it really helps the dash flow)











Still have to tweak the gaps on the glove box door, still in progress.


What do you guys think?

Re: [PROJECT] Laidout53 Part II

Finally an update for you guys!

Finished welding in the door pieces and got the dash about 98% welded in. The glove box mod is about 80% done. Finished the dash corner transitions and tweaked the glove box gaps (a little more need) Also shaved the window wiper holes.

Heres the pictures...

Door pieces




Dash corner transitions







All welded and smoothed






Hit the dash with a scotch brite pad.



What do you guys think?
