Been a long time, but I added more pics from October through December [http://www.rodandpiston.com/pictures.asp?id=other\_events/camarojoe&pic\_count=721](http://www.rodandpiston.com/pictures.asp?id=other_events/camarojoe&pic_count=721) Been working on the dash mostly and some of the interior. I cleaned out the rats nest of wiring and have that reasonable organized. Now to remember what is what. Before: ![http://www.rodandpiston.com/other_events/camarojoe/web/randp_783.jpg](http://www.rodandpiston.com/other_events/camarojoe/web/randp_783.jpg) Currently (cleaned and repainted dash and heater box): ![http://www.rodandpiston.com/other_events/camarojoe/web/randp_849.jpg](http://www.rodandpiston.com/other_events/camarojoe/web/randp_849.jpg) here is what the new triple guages will look like where the radio usually would go ![http://www.glowshift.com/ProductPics/Thumb_GS-T704_TINEDOILPSI.jpg](http://www.glowshift.com/ProductPics/Thumb_GS-T704_TINEDOILPSI.jpg) A friend has some of these guages and said they work great. Shortly the Dynamat goes in and then followed by the interior 🙂 Meaning more room in the garage ---

Joe how’s the floor in the car? Any rust/surface rust? If so you should paint the floor with por15 "the 3 step system ".check em out [http://www.por15.com/](http://www.por15.com/) This stuff is amazing. I painted my whole floor and truck with this stuff. It makes your floor stronger and looks like new. As for dynamat its good stuff but fatmat is cheaper and does just as good as a job. ---

I actually did get FatMat, but I say dynamat and people know what I’m talking about. The floor had some patch work, but now it is solid. I will check into that though since the interior is still out and now would be the best time. > [@TrueBlue](#): > > Coming along.

Going to be awesome. So you ordered your parts, but is the car disassembled yet? 🙂 Start a thread for your progress and start posting! 🙂 [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/69-camaro-resto-its-alive-no-56k/13530.md?page=14) [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/69-camaro-resto-its-alive-no-56k/13530.md?page=16)
