lovely stuff
Thanks for all your videos as I restore my 69 convertible. Definitely saved me time and frustration on how to take things apart.
Glad to help
Excellent performance
Great work! I have a question regarding a part number for the right side vent on dash panel on a 1969. The ones I find are not correct and are not long enough to fill the cutout or mount correctly. Maybe you can help. Thank you in advance!
Sorry I missed your questions. That is odd that you are having trouble finding one. I purchased two vents for left and right and they where the same part number. They look exactly like the original OEMs. I have not heard of two sizes of vents for 69.
@@riderescue yeah very strange. I will see with new dash tomorrow how it fits. Thanks for replying.
@@mumbols Good luck!
Great detailed video tutorial. My dash is mainly black but has the imitation wood design at the lower area where the headlight switch is. I would like to change over to black how do you suggest I do this with the stock dash cluster without buying a new one. Can I peel it off, clean and repaint or should I just paint over or is there black trim I can lay over that? Thanks..
If I remember that area correctly, the wood trim plate has a screw post that goes through the face of the plastic dash panel. Feel behind that area between the wiper switch and the steering column for a nut. If you remove it there will be a hole left there. You will need to paint that wood trim.
Great work on that awesome car! What epoxy did you use on the cluster repair, the epoxy I tried (JB weld epoxy) didn’t get super hard like you demonstrated, it’s hard but still tacky after 4 days. I tried it twice thinking that I may have had the 50/50 mixture off but the same.
Very tedious,
I spent a little over an hour restoring this part of the dash but it was worth it.
