    You nailed it, I love it. The choice for the firewall color is a good one. White would have been too bright!

    WOW! Stellar job, beautiful vintage dash, all original instrumentation, you truly have good taste. Bone stock interior, and traditional Hot-Rod exterior, that is the only way to go. Best of luck to you.
