      looks good dude, at least someone finally got smart and put a camaro dash in a camaro instead of a firebird dash.
      Tough guys may wear pink, but Bad Asses still wear black.

      haha i was gonna say at least its a camaro dash. everone seems to like the pontiac dash better, but i am glad to see a camaro dash in a camaro.

      what will you do about the sections where the a pillar covers come down to meet the dash?

      Yeah, there's a reason everyone uses the pontiac dash: it looks better, haha. I got the camaro dash for free and hey...who am I to argue with that? Now that its in, the one thing I really like about this dash is the few degrees the center portion is turned towards the driver. Makes a world of difference if you're ever trying to adjust anything while driving.

      The a-pillars im currently molding out of 2-stage foam. I'm molding in a tweeter at the base of hte pillar, and I'll end up either glassing them or having them covered vinyl when I get the rest of hte interior done. I'm also not quite happy with how the cover sits between the dash and the windshield, so i might make somethign to fit better there too.

      Gauges Work?

      Always been curious how people got the gauges to work. Do they work and how did you do it?

      I bought a rolled 99 camaro and took the entire wiring harness outta the car and mated it to my 68 harness. Only tricky part was the steering column wiring, and even that wasn't too bad. This way everything worked thru the body control module as intended.
