66 convertible top switch cover made!
I've been looking for a Good top switch cover for my wife's 66 dart resto and haven't found any that I thought were reasonably priced. sooooo I fixed my broken one and cast a mold of it to make one that I could smooth out and make pretty, plus add the broken pins in the rear too!
here's the part that I have to smooth out and re mold after I get it smoothed out in the broken area (now that I'm not afraid of breaking the glue joint since it is all in one piece now:cheers:)
you can see the glue joint in the original piece

now that I have a good starter piece I'll work on that piece to smooth it out some more and clean up the front surface so the impression of the original glue joint is gone. then I'll see if my black tint has come in and try it out to make the piece in black plastic. 1 step closer to getting my dash done and cleaned up.
man I gotta quit using the phone to take pic's these SUCK sorry bout that.
