Chevelle dash cluster refresh

Taking a page from the Tim S C2 playbook, here is the cluster refresh from my current project. I've always enjoyed working with these clusters!

Subject is a '67 Malibu coupe, L79/M21, 3:55 posi built last week of Baltimore production and sold from Keddie Chevrolet, Vandegrift PA. Thanks Boomer32 for connecting me with the OO!!

It's a simple idiot light cluster, just a cleaning, the only part replaced was the bezel using a replated piece I had and lens just needed a light polish. Clock was repaired by The Clock Works retaining original movement. 66K miles, did NOT reset to zero.

A sharp eye will note that in the parts spread I laid out a second clock instead of the fuel gauge...:tongue:

Not alot to tell at this point Bill.
Chassis is mostly completed with more suspension detailing needed. Body is back on frame, paint cut and buff is done.
Many sub assemblies and all chrome and trim are done. Interior is largely original but will need carpet.
Doing the born with L79 engine now. So it's at that point where the pieces will start coming together.
Now keep in mind that Tim S gets more done before breakfast than this old crumugin gets done in a week :beers:...but I'll post up more from time to time as it comes together.
Attached are pix the day I brought it home in 2011.
