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.

Thumbs up

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

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.
