Just finished at MCC!!
 
This car was at Mikes Custom Cars when I picked up my floor. I was blown away by the detail of this car. The dash is a work of art ! The paint is perfection. The interior is all leather including the floor! Mike told me what interior cost alone! :faint: This was built for a good friend of Mikes who owns a local body shop,it was built for his wife .... I know its not PT but man this car just blew me away . Heres some pics...

I recognize that dash from the back of one of the mags. I think they come in two different versions, both hand laid f/g.

That dash is all steel !!! Not fiberglass .

We built this dash for my buddy's car about 7 to 8 years ago (Not this car) . The dash/car was on my web in till some guys copy the dash . About 7 Camaro and 4 other cars that i know of . And yes someone is making it in fiberglass to now . The dash was removed from his car and a new custom dash was built.

Brian liked the dash we built for him years ago . So he had me install it back in to his wife's car we built (Blue 69 Camaro here ) . All the parts on this car are all steel !!!

Wheel size : Front 18 x 7 Rear 20 x 12

The flame detail is kinda cool. I like how it is carrie dthrough the entire car, The gauges, the center console, the under hood and parts on the engine.

Rodger,

This is a all steel dash built by me(Mike Riggs/MCC) for Brain Hall's 69 Camaro about 8 + years ago . This dash is out of a 59/60 Chevy and was custom made to fit Brian's 69. This dash was in Brian Hall's other car and it was on my web showing how it was built back then .

A lot of guys like how it looked and with in weeks of it being posted , about 5 Camaro had one to . Even someone made a fiberglass one (Dash works) .
It's cool ... just happy every one liked it.

Thanks,
Mike

MCC 09-09-2009 06:26 AM
