Demolding the dash, pretty fun actually.
Demolded and washed off most of the PVA mold release. Ready for cleaning up the flanges and then fitting in the car.

Watching the process on this drove my OCD crazy. It's just such a mess, but out pops this badass piece and I'm amazed.

That is actually what I was thinking.
What is worse is I am building a 2nd gen and now I kind of want one these dashboards.

Thank you and you are so right, it's a mess and it doesn't let your brains ick factor off the hook until it's completely done! It is painful for sure.
Marty...I still have the mold, call me if you want to discuss. It obviously won't fit 100% in your car but that's the cool part with 'glass, you can manipulate it however you like.

Here's some more of the ugly'. Pulling the kick panels off the reverse mold. Lots of clean up and making the flanges/mounting brackets to come.

Hand grabs anchored. Mounting brackets welded to the cage, will modify the A pillar cover to give a bit more room for your knuckles, after the dash and kick panels are completely anchored. These make it easier for these old bones to climb over the mini door bars.

Making progress on the brackets for the dry sump pump. Plastic prototype for now, more to come once I have the actual pump not a mockup. Will definitely need to modify the K-member for oil fitting/line clearance but just a small amount.
