Re: ParB's 72 Orange Jimmy

I'm going to have the dash pad made in a medium brown color (i guess its slightly darker than sandlewood, but only slightly). Very close to the original dash pad color. i'm using orange thread and contrast stitch it to make it slightly custom (i did the same with the seats).

I'm having the recesses in the nose badge painted in, same paint as was used for the grille. I want to preserve that stock look as much as possible.

I hope there won't be too much of a struggle with the eyebrows. So far i have had relatively few missteps. I was far more worried about the wiring harness not working out, but that was no big deal. I researched the original paint the factory put on the 72 grille and tried to keep it as close to stock as i could.
