Before all the fun creative stuff began, I made several structural repairs on the back side of the panel. The most significant was probably the wooden truss brace to stiffen the thin area between the temp. Slide control and defrost slide control. Age and use had allowed a lot of deflection so when the selectors were moved the head knobs dragged on the panel face. This video shows the use of the Dodge Metallic Gray on knob faces and lettering backgrounds. Also, gauge pointers were sprayed Lime Crazy, green l.e.d. lights installed, I rolled the odometer back to 1968 and pulled the gear out keeping it frozen in time and finally a custom hi- beam lens. Challenging and fun.
