Thanks a lot for the feedback! Yeah I was going really fast while I stood outside with the door open.
I dont have the dash fully wired yet but I do have it wired to my headlights and clear tail lights. It even functions with the original dimmer on the floor.

Hey CAMAROBOY69 PM me about that dash and seat work. You beat me to what I was planning for my project. I got a 72 Nova I gotta get running before I can get the 69. But I was already planning part of that buildup for the Camaro. Looks good, just wanna know how hard that dash was to put in. Looks awesome.

Definatly a headturner! Even tho Houndstooth is good to see, its cool to see someone try a different approach to it. And it definatly looks @ home. You figure the Camaro INT would be just as easy to install?

Thank you everyone for the extended compliments.
The dash install was about 6 hours of labor including the mockup and the brackets I designed, cut, and welded in. I still have to wire it.
Power windows are a next year or year after project. The interior is only about 80% finished, if even that. I still have a lot more to do until im completely satisfied. But then again when are we ever finished with our cars.

Thanks Steve for welcoming me to the site and thank you SOOOOOOO MUCH FOR THE WHEELS!!!!! Probably the greatest moment of working on my car was when those wheels arrived! I still stare at them everytime I get around the car. Even when im sitting at my desk at work.
