Nice progress!
Spending time with my grandkids gets in the way of finishing my car but I don't regret it!

Looks like you have gotten alot done since your last post. Keep going!
Tighten it up til it strips, then back it off a quarter turn

FATnLOW,  glad your finally getting better. My buddy Tom's doc tried all kinds of different pills for his summer allergies(every year) then finally tried some kind of steroid shot?, and knocked it right out. Haha, same with my dog, they would both start sneezing with in a week of each other (and the dog would get a rash on his belly).

I like your dash layout, and the a/c controls in side the glove box. Glad you were able to make use of the spears.

Nice work on the dash!  The glove box is a great place to hide things.  I need to do something with my heater controls to make it look cleaner.
