I notice some of your indicator needles are sun bleached. The fix to that is using orange flourescent high lighter. Mine looked just like yours. B9E6FCFE-3A09-4DAF-A61F-1890AF1BD8C0.jpeg

If my friend comes over this week end the dash will be put in the car, then I can use the key to start it instead of a screwdriver. :thumbsup:

Your dash pictures gave me some motivation to finish mine. I’m still in paint, just came from the shop marked up what gets paint and what gets undercoat on bottom side.

I still have to paint my fenders and my doors and the hood on mine yet. I just wanted to get it where I could move it around on its own power.

It seems to go on and on Jack R. Nut's/blot's/ bracket's/ trim/ Wish you lot's of luck. Have you posted pic's of the project. A lot of us have done ground up resto on these car's. I am a bed liner guy. Did every thing I could with it to keep the rust away. After seeing where the problem's where just decided to use the bed liner in stead of paint on the under side. In the quarter's. Inside the door's. Under roof. Floor pan. In the front fender's. Wheel tub's. Man I just tried to cover every thing. It is some tough stuff it will hold up in the bed of a pick up truck. No the car is not going to be a show car Per say.

Yes looks like you have had your hand's full. Did not know it was a Vert. That is a real challenge to keep the body straight. RonLiv has one also he restored on here. Look's good. Another bird rises from the ashes. :thumbsup2::thumbsup2::thumbsup2:
