Starting to take shape, got rid of the yellow and it looks much gooder.

These 4 screws

Metaldoc · 01-10-2019, 09:33 PM

I like it and it cleans it up nicely.

cornerstone · 01-11-2019, 12:52 AM

Do you have any plans for painting the filler panels?

I looked at either black or blue, but I'm not sure if I go black the engine shows up more. If I go blue it will match the firewall but will draw the attention away from the engine.

Orange67 · 01-09-2019, 07:24 PM

Very nice! I actually like the added bend you did to accommodate the a.c. stuff. Looks awesome, great work as usual!

**Advanced Design** · 01-12-2019, 12:09 PM

Very nice work on the filler panel! Gives a really clean look.

Thanks man it does look a lot cleaner

Metaldoc · 01-12-2019, 12:43 PM

Back on the dash today, got the LED 194 bulbs to make the gauges brighter.

Metaldoc · 01-13-2019, 01:48 AM

With only one bulb in it makes a big difference. They make a dimmer for these now so I can lower the light. Maybe.

Metaldoc · 01-13-2019, 08:52 PM

Well it fits back on with a couple of mods and it all works. I'm too cheap sometimes. The LED bulb change looks great.

**68bowtie** · 01-15-2019, 11:20 PM

Yes! Well done.

**Canuckvetter** · 01-16-2019, 12:02 AM

👍🏻

**Advanced Design** · 01-16-2019, 10:12 PM

Good choice. Really sets off the engine.

cornerstone · 01-17-2019, 12:06 AM

BOOM!!! Looks amazing man!! Is that a satin black?

Thanks it does set off the engine and it's satin black same as all the black.

Lokin4AReason · 01-17-2019, 12:18 PM

nice progress on the build, keep those update(s) coming ...

Metaldoc · 01-18-2019, 03:41 PM

Found all the stuff I need to run door wiring and pins. I also got new tach conectors for the dizzy. One little think at a time. The aluminum block is to make door pin wedge blocks. 67 doesn't have the raised door pin boss. They don't make or sell them so..

Metaldoc · 01-19-2019, 08:22 PM

Play dough prototype made, now to find my CNC hand grinder and machine some door jam pin wedges.
