    It may take a little force. There are teeth on the end of the outer sleeve that dig in to the back side of the dash to hold it in place.
    Thanks. I just pulled it out. That was a PITA even with an empty dash.

    I'll be trying to roll the Falcon out of the garage in the morning to paint the dash. I can't get both doors open at the same time in my small garage. There is no steering wheel or column installed so turning will be tricky. Any volunteers?

    I'll get started at about 9:30AM.

    I was prepping and painting the backside of the glove box door and a few other small parts. It didn't go well. I washed them with soap and water and then wiped them down with PPG wax and grease remover. Still I had massive fisheyes. I'll have to redo them tomorrow.

    The color is on the dash. I'm just waiting for it to dry so I can get the clear on there.

    What fun. Will look very nice once it's all in with the new dash.

    Patrick how did the gauge cluster turn out?? Was the color good on the panel? Like to see how it all turned out.

    Here is what it looks like so far. I have a problem with the column so it's going back to Ididit for modifications. I'll be installing the old column to get me rolling again until it's back.

    The gauges look great. The powder coated bit is seen only from the side.

    Looking good! Are you going to weld up those holes from the old pedal?

    So does that mean they'll add something to the end and you won't need to repaint?

    I just have the old screws in there.

    They are going to replace the tube and shaft. I'll need to repaint.
