1965 Chevy Pickup & Hemi Hydro combo - Page 31 Empty Re: 1965 Chevy Pickup & Hemi Hydro combo

I moved onto the dash next, adding some Testors Clear Parts Cement to the gauges and speedometer. I've got to add a bit more to the speedo to level it off, and I'll be done with this part. I also mocked up the interior real quick just to see how it looks so far.

Yeah, there's a bit of excess glue there, but it magically fixes itself in the third pic, trust me! I'm seriously considering a bit of the Clear Cement over the Oil and Generator lights too, we'll see later....

See, all better now, would I lie to you? Don't answer that!

Interior is looking real good, Mike. I like these colors, may steel the combo sometime.

The clear over the dash is a great idea, I would do the other 2 as well.

This project is shaping up pretty good.

I've used it a couple of times now, and after looking at this dash, I figured it couldn't hurt. I was worried about the speedometer in particular, I wasn't sure it was going to work out...looks like it did, to a point at least!

Alright, I've got a mini-update here, not much, but it's progress, right? I added a bit more Clear Parts Cement to the Generator and Oil lights on the dash, and some more to the speedometer too. Then I masked off the seat so i can spray a bit of Candy Apple Green on it to give the interior a bit more color.
