Re: Dan's '46 - Some Small Stuff Done Today.
Not much activity on this board anymore.
Partly my fault as I've been too busy to work on my '46 but I found a minor score today. I've been looking for the 3 pc's of trim that go along the bottom of the dash. So far I've never found it reproduced so I've been eBay shopping it, etc. The only ones I found were beat up, dented. Last night I found a complete '46 Chevy dash WITH the trim and as a bonus it had an un-dented glove box door. Picked it up cheap including the instrument cluster.
These (lousy, sorry) cell phone pix show the door and one piece of the trim in process as I took my wire wheel to them. My truck will (hopefully) be a clean, weekend, Home Depot driver so I intend to prime-sand-prime-paint silver & clear coat the trim. I think it'll look good enough for my purposes. I MAY do a Krylon rebuild on the dash and display it on my garage wall to test colors....OR...I MAY sell it. Still haven't decided.
