I'll get you some tomorrow, I get it back from the upholstery place tomorrow, they made me some custom door panels to match the dash. I'll take some tomorrow when I get it back, but I did the dash myself.

oh heck yeah. id really like to see pics of this too. i love my 79 and i love my 96. with people putting 4th gen fronts under the 2nd gen metal and now someone putting a 4th gen dash in a 2nd gen car youve almost got a complete 4th gen wrapped in 2nd gen metal and lines. sounds good to me.

Yes, I am in the process now (if I can get back to the shop anytime soon) Look in the VB Garage under 502454 for a couple of pics.

Not sure who's it is but I found these pictures a long time ago, it's a 93 interior in a 73 Camaro, check out the custom touch on the door panel in the front corner :)

Does anybody have more information on putting a 4th gen. dash in a 2nd gen. camaro? I am very intrested in how the dash pad fits on top of the stock dash. Also, any info. on how to make the door panels work. THANKS....TEDDY

Teddy,
Don't worry about it. You live 15 minutes from my house and you know I will be hooking you up since I was one of the very first people to even do this in a 69 Camaro. So putting it into a 70 wont be that much different. I still have alll my bracket designs and everything we need to get it into your car. :)
Im glad I talked you into the T/A dash too instead of the Camaro. You wont regret it. Once we have the old dash cut out I can design your brackets and have your new dash bolted in within 1 day. :)

Sorry, but I put those on my own site, I had them saved on my hard drive for years, but I can't recall where I had got them :hammer:

I know this is an old post, but Teddy we know Camaroboy did your dash already. I'm anxious to see some updated photos of the dash, custom door panels and interior!
