Been working on several fronts the past few days. The upholstery guy said it would probably be the first of February before he'd have a spot for me. Scott got me lined up with a rollback for when I need transport, so I'm focused on getting as much done as I can while I wait.

After the dash inserts, I modified the stock heater control panel to accept the Vintage Air Streamline controls. The VA piece was just slightly too wide to drop in the available space, so I had to mill 1/4" off the back of the panel and make a new insert to fit. While I was at it, I also make some inserts for where the original backlit signage went. I'll have Steve make me custom lettering to go in those areas later. After milling the slot in the filler insert, I put a couple of bends in it to conform to the back surfaces of the potmetal panel. Then glued it in with 3M panel adhesive. After paint it should look pretty decent.
