Is he going to pull the interior to paint the dash? And when does he plan on doing that...soon I hope! Also, how's the angle of the gauges when sitting in the seat? They look to be pointig down a bit? Not picking it appart...just trying to help you get what you pay for!

Yeah I am pretty sure. The carpet is just laying there and the seat was just placed inside so I could sit there and get the feel for everything.

Yep the dash angle is no bueno so that is getting redone. Just needs to be recessed back inside there a bit to make it on the same sight line and angle as the steering column.

Just found this thread...

Glad to see someone finally put the slick '69 RS taillights IMHO on a '68 (or a '67 for the matter).:thumbsup:

I like your paint color also, very classy.

Todd, you will be happy to know that my builder is buying back my fuel system from me and I will be going with one of the aftermarket stainless tank, most likely with an in-tank pump.

Now I am just trying to find a good deal on one! :D

I love spending other people money!:cheers: You will be glad you did. Fuel problems means stranded and pissed off. :D

awr68 10-09-2008 07:43 PM

You will be happy you are redoing the system! As Todd stated, the fuel system is quite important!!

Any updates?
