Rocky Mountain Dash coming together
Thanks guys. To answer some questions...
USCG: Yes, the GB is a bit of a pain. It definitely adds time to the fitting process to get it to look and work decently. If I had to do it again I would probably go with a GB delete. However, I do feel it helps balance the look of the dash out. Without it I feel it would look naked over there. the only code I have for the paint is 92P - which I think is kind of a generic silver. It's a Lesonal (Akzo-Nobel) base. I have a friend who runs a paint store and I basically walked in, looked at a chip chart of silvers and picked one out. It had a very, very light metallic to it (didn't want the flakes jumping out at you) and then I cleared it with a semi-gloss clear.
Clhyer: That's just the angle of the picture. I shot it a little high to try and catch a little more of the top of the dash. Seated in the car the view is from a lower angle.
Blackace: That thing was $475 and that was before his price increase at the start of '07.
Which brings me to Fastback 340: Thanks. You probably made the right choice. In the end the damages were more like $1200+ for dash and gauges - and that was before I had the pad restored! Uhg.
