Today I did a very scary thing.. I cut a near 50 y/o dash :confused59:

Okay I know how you feel when I drill holes into freshly painted parts & body panels.

It's the original dash, and a new dash pad (just sitting on there). Nova's have the center vent cutout already in the dash, you just have to swap to the AC dash pad.. only cutting is for the passengers side vent. The drivers side vent is in the gauge surround.

So.. apparently 2 of my jack-stands for the Nova wanted to kill me... :confused59:

I had 2 of the recalled Harbor Freight jack-stands. I dropped the Nova on the ground, and went to HF for replacements. Other than waiting in two lines, it wasn't a painful exchange.

Took to a few shots of the car on the ground.

The car looks great on the ground and I am happy to here that the return was easy and that the car didn't fall on you prior to the return.

Ha! Yeah, wasn't a problem for me anyway. I got the 6 ton stands for the extra height, with my truck. For the Nova, I don't even extend them, so I probably would have never seen the issue.. with the Nova at least.

I have a set of old Jack stands that are very tall and that is what I use them for also and I own a truck.
