Vintage Air Drain Routing (( 04-06-23 ))
 
I need to route the Vintage Air drain away from the header so up and over the frame rail we go.

Classic Dash Final Install (( 04-07-23 ))
 
Quick trip to the local Ace Hardware from more supplies

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...51c0c95-me.jpg

I needed to pick up a piece of flat stock so I could install the dash surround as the holes don't line up and also need a spacer.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...689f412-me.jpg

I can't believe I haven't removed the steering wheel as it is been in the way so many times !!!

Time to trim more of the Classic Dash Surround

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...a498f5a-me.jpg

Funny story. I was at the Doctor a couple of weeks ago and the Dermatologist used this little marker
on leg. Since I love Green & Blue I asked her if I could have the marker since they have to throw it out after they use
it. She said yes and thankfully I had it as I tried ever marker I had to mark the hole that I need to drill and nothing
worked. I decided to look in my truck and I found it and it worked perfectly.

I mounted the bracket to the dash bracket with a nut and bolt (sorry no picture) however before i installed I screwed the
sheet metal screw into so it would be easier to install the surround.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...9648a45-me.jpg

Surround is in !!!

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...c9aa9e2-me.jpg

Now for the rest of the stuff.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...6de9a81-me.jpg

First Up is the headlight switch and if you guys have any ideas as what I can use to fill the hole below the switch I would love suggestions.

I know it looks crooked it's just an illusion

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...3be13d8-me.jpg

Da !!!! Next make sure you install the retaining bracket before you plug everything in.

Holley GPS Wire (( 04-07-23 ))
 
While I was cleaning up I notice the GPS Signal wire as not in such a great place. My plan is to wrap the
wire in TechFlex abrasion wrap to protect it.

MJ-Really like the yellow striping on your R…

https://i.postimg.cc/sfBg0pNj/789844...4-E44-D2-A.jpg

As far as what goes in the hole in your dash, how about making this emoji functional…:G-Dub: Just press it every time you think of something else the ‘70 needs…and it automatically sends $500 to Holley, ARP etc.


:P

Thank you and now I need the black mirrors & gills

Man I'm so happy to see the blue tape exiting the scene!!

Great job Marty!

After you get the dash together, might want to calibrate the vintage air controls to make sure you're getting full sweep of all the stepper motors in the base. If you have a gen IV setup, follow this procedure, had to use it recently on a car I was working on. Doesn't matter if you have the knob setup or factory style, calibration is calibration.:thumbsup:

Cayman Project
 
I will be honest the 35k I spent on the Cayman has to be the best money I have ever spent. However, it did slow the progress of the Camaro and thank you for the kind words.
