Here’s after the ash tray was filled in and the vent locations were laid out with pilot holes. I wanted to keep a somewhat stock-appearing AC/heater control because it’s not my intention to completely redesign the dash. The GM designers did a great job in 67 in my opinion-I just want to add a bit of modern to it

Finally, here’s the dash after vent holes were added. They blend in quite well to the bottom side of the dash due to the naturally downward angle.

Dash looks great Shane. I like the vent locations. Did they make them from scratch or did you have something to start with?

Thanks, man! I’m very happy with everything. They were made from scratch, each made out of two pieces.

Looks great Shane - you made the right choice to modify the dash - will look so much better when it is finished. I, too, struggled with what to do with the vents and ended up doing something similar. Firewall looks awesome, too!

I got the Nova back from the body shop today. Excited about how it turned out. I’m ready to get movin’ on this thing. I was playing around with some green tape to map out the fuel and brake line routing. I also wanted to see what the dash was gonna look like with some of the pretty stuff on it so I played with that a little. Up next is to seam seal the bottom, scuff it down and paint it then get the bedliner sprayed on. I can also get the battery mount and fuel tank vent mocked up. I plan to make a bulkhead to separate the trunk and back seat areas and I can get some of the interior stuff put together since the interior’s been painted. Here’s some pics...

A little update...Got the underside bedlined, brake and fuel lines bent, started on the Dynamat in a few areas while it was easier being on the rotisserie. Then got the Quadralink reinstalled, got the the body off the rotisserie, subframe mounted and temporarily hung the front sheet metal to see how it looked in the shape of a car! Here’s some pics...thanks for looking!
