Finished dash and gauge cluster installed.




Radio removed and replaced with Vintage Air control panel. In place of radio control knobs are the light and wiper switches.

Haha, that was my first reaction as well! Definitely wouldn't be my first choice but you did an awesome job integrating that into the dash. Also I love your use of the "Chevrolet" script from those valve covers.
