    Police GT/CS

    The rear end is pure California Special--I've seen it! The car at some point must have had front-end work since the grille and lights are missing (my guess).

    Ripping apart dash

    Thanks for the kind words. Here's another shot. I would like to tackle the door panels(painting) and putting new rubber all around, but I have a feeling that would be a BIG project. Anyone done that?

    Ripping apart dash

    Well I finally removed everything from the dash and I also pulled out all the seats. One thing I learned after looking under and through the dash is there were many things that were either worn or broken or just disconnected. I now know what a heater plenum is and that the hoses need to be...

    Ripping apart dash

    I've only sprayed my ashtray and nothing else. I usually work with enamel paints vs. lacquer. The main difference with lacquer is you need tons (5+) of light coats for it to work. I guess enamel and laquer don't mix either. Yes, it can be sanded w/ 600 grit paper. Does that answer your questions?
