Default Nova Dash Insert!!

For all the third gen nova guys I finally found a company making steel dash inserts. The guy I talked to formally worked in NASCAR and finally had enough. They have 3 design options and I chose the stock controls and vent location.

The company is Performance Vehicle Works out of Cornelius, NC. The website is www.performancevehicleworks.com

Here are a few pics I took of mine!

I was glad to see these come out. I don't know if it was built by the same guy or not but it is very similar to the one 72novadriver is using except his is setup for Racepac.

I'm holding out hope that Anvil will make a satin finish CF one .

The dash fit great! They are all laser cut then bent up and tig-welded. I had no problems at all and set right in. All I had to do was drill my holes for the mounting screws.

I previously had a Covans dash and that was NO comparison. IMO for a hand crafted piece worth the money!

Not the same. I am pretty sure he modified a DSE dash. I looked at theirs as I live right down the road from their shop. Great piece but outta my price range, and I would have had to modify it.

Personally if I had a '69 Camaro I would be tempted to use one of these and a Nova dash pad...much cleaner look I think!!
