I started this project about a month ago. I wanted a custom dash instead of the stock, box, useless dash that came stock in the late 80's camaros. Mine is an 87' iroc-z.

This is my sketch of what i want. fiberglass dash project - Last Post -- posted image.

This is my interior

The supplies i bought are:

5 gallons of layup resin

20 yards of fiberglass mat

2 sheets of bending plywood

1 sheet 3/4" mdf

and...glue...staples...brad nails... and so on.

I started with framing the curve for the top.

then cut the bendi and stapled and screwed it on...

I then put it in place and cut out the shape i am looking for.

I then broke my camora and had to borrow one.... so here is like 4 days ago... fiberglass dash project - Last Post -- posted image.

What does everyone think? I have put one layer of glass on the passengers side ill post that and more info on how im going to put this thing together when i can get a camora... fiberglass dash project - Last Post -- posted image.
