My 72 Comet Build.....

Love the dash!!

 

Yes, a thing of beauty

 

Thanks..... Me to, really happy with the way it's coming out.....

and thank you.....

 

I went back to the shop this evening and sanded the dash down..... Did a little more filling and sanding, then got another coat of primer on it.....

Here it is after sanding, filling and sanding again.....




and here it is primed again.....

 

That looks awesome. Can't wait to see it with the gauges in it.

 

Thanks.....

 

I went down this morning planning on sanding and priming the dash, to my surprise after sanding it I decided to just go ahead and paint it..... I also got inserts in for the door mirrors, I also put some in for the upper dash mounting.....

Here is the dash after sanding.....





and here it is painted.....

 

Top-notch work, as usual Frank! Those gauge pods look beautiful!!

 

Looks so sweet! How does that paint compare to the original blue metallic?

 

Thanks.....

Thanks..... It is the closest thing I can find to the original and I tried more then a few..... I couldn't even get anything mixed that looked right.....

 

Yes, very nice.

 

Thanks.....

 

Went to the shop this morning and put the wiper switch assy and Comet script back on the dash, then installed the dash in the car..... Got all the screws, braces and brackets on.....

After that I got the windshield and trim down and cleaned them up..... I put the new gasket on the windshield and installed it in the car..... Now for the entirely to messy part I put bedding & glazing compound all the way around the windshield gasket, first between the glass the around the outside of the gasket..... Then I put the trim clips in place and finished filling the outside area with bedding & glazing compound..... Now I installed the window trim and proceeded to clean up the mess around the glass and trim.....


Here is the dash installed in the car.....







Here is the windshield and trim ready for install.....





Here is the windshield install in the car.....





Here it is with the bedding & glazing compound applied before clips were installed.....





Here it is with trim installed after clean up.....





I can't resist, one more of the dash after windshield install(I think the dash really came out sweet).....

 

Extremely nice!

 

Beautiful…...
