      Customs will be scratching their heads as they're used to sending muscle to Australia.
      I agree with the stopping point. Get it 'finished' and enjoy it. Then later work out if you want little mods here and there
      No none at all, However there is a guy here in NC who converts pontiac G8's into utes haha

Does the late model dash actually fit into the early Camaro, width wise? Meaning, the padded part of the dash does/doesn't have to be altered? Does it fit between the posts? I know there's a lot of work goes on in the fab part of this. Really cool how this is going to end up.
      Thanks,
      Carl
      Fire away, I'm always more than happy to help.
      Width wise, the dash fits surprisingly well, the pictures below will show it.
      But it is much, much deeper and needs to be trimmed back a lot! It's all in place now and looks quite at home, I'm really liking it. The dash actually isn't padded anywhere, it's just plastic and can be cut easily, but it fits in-between the posts no problem at all.
      we'll need to make some custom side panels to close it out and figure a way to tie it into the A-pillars, and then make custom door cards to bring it all together but that is future james's problem, for now I just want to wrap-up the fabrication, which is very close, I sat inside the car today so we could figure the best way to mount the seats, and custom seat brackets will be made as low as possible, also some further reinforcing of the floor now that it has been modified to allow for the wider seats.
      Then it'll all be removed in a couple weeks and we'll sand it back to bare metal before having the interior sand blasted a little and put it all back in epoxy.
