time for the interior!
As much time and effort that i have put into the body,paint, undercarriage and engine bay its time to focus my attention on the interior.
I must devote just as much time to the inside as i gave to the outside. With that said i knew i was unable to leave the distressed dash board in the condition it was in, cracked, sun beat and poor! So, out it had to come.

dash repairs
Time to strip and prep the surface for repairs
First step clean with a de-greaser and water
Second step sand surface with a scotch-brite pad
third step clean surface with acetone cleaner
I will focus on the damaged and cracked areas. I will be using fiberglass and resin on the damaged areas. This will be time consuming. Many areas of the dash are broken away and missing. I will reconstruct them from the fiberglass and resin.

Truthfully,,I seriously considered that option and simply decided to fix what I have, I really enjoy it, I know it's time consuming but that's still ok ,it's genuinly the real reason why I restore cars and trucks as a hobby
