Small update.
This took forever to get right, and the pics do it no justice.. But the factory dash was painted in a wrinkle grey finish. I used Eastwoods wrinkle black paint which mimics the OEM texture almost perfectly. I had to redo it twice because it wouldn't lay down correctly. The next step is to paint it grey. Here is it so far:
I also received the final piece (button/lock) for the glove box. I'll get pics of it installed shortly. The floor boards are now finished being covered in Eastwood's rust encap. and I started mounting some of the tail lights.
