Really Nice dash,.. Details & Details,… 👍👍👍😎

John,.. in one of the boxes I left a new choke cable,.. did you see it?

Yes sir…. I saw the new cable.. I need to polish the aluminum head before I put it in….  It’s high up the list… I wanna drop that beautiful glove box in… but… I cleaned up those air directors, put some black paint on them… but they needed new seals… H.O.G. is sending the!!!.  I also cleaned up the mech for the fresh air controls…. lubed it up with marvel and cleaned up the copper tubes with scotch brite before dropping in… Lot of stuff u[ under a ghia dash!!!!!

The dash Grab Handle… Looks like you want it polished and wrapped in the center with Blue.. correct???? I wonder if they were usually body color on the ends?  Not sure. 😎

Also prepped the dash parts for paint and sprayed some epoxy sealer on the items I had to body work… Paint soon!!!! 😎  Juan, you have a new sticker for the back of the glove box?

John, about the dash grab handle, what I want is body color on the ends with dark blue seat material on the middle.  On the inside globe box sticker, I already have the water German decal, I will send it with extra stickers that I already have.

thanks for the update John.

Ok You got it.. I will include it in my paint session this morning for the dash stuff!!!!  😎  Hopefully there is extra blue in the box for the handle… 😎  This handle needs to go in before the glove box… I think…. 😎
