This number was on the underside of my dash, wondering if the 8/3 was for 1983? Kinda cool. Covered by vinyl now...

No speed bumps this time. Gloss is from mineral spirits I used to clean off excess adhesive. Also used heat gun on those pesky corners and eliminated folds. Happy with results.

On the second go-round I found that if you trim as close as possible before you start, it is a lot less "clumsy". I bonded the front first so that I could pull back and to the side for the rest

My roll of black marine upholstery vinyl came today too. My dash was cracked with 3/16 inch cracks in about 6 places. I filled with body filler and am "wrapping" with faux leather. First try for me, but the first 5 inches look good. I got the feeling "she" was watching me!

And then with my piece from the original mother steering wheel, I am liking this config, obviously not perfect, but still looks pretty cool for the price.

I can still paint the screws with wrinkle black, but wanted to see what it looked like silver. Not too bad.

Will probably paint the silver with that wrinkle black, to more closely resemble the old one. And I'm pretty sure my old horn button will work as well.
