Well, there's a little more to it than that. I started with the dashboard—which had already been sprayed the proper semigloss black. I cleaned up the stock gauges, reset the odometer to zero and reinstalled the instrument panel.
While I was in that corner, I put new pads on the brake and throttle pedals, new knobs on the dash controls and a reproduction urethane dash pad across the top edge of the dash. I also installed reproduction sun visors, a reproduction interior rearview mirror and the chrome trim that covers the inside of the windshield pillars.
I also got a modern radio with a faceplate and controls that replicate the original, a model with AM/FM/cassette stereo and built-in 40-watt amplifier. We fit a pair of small stereo speakers beneath the stock dashtop 6 x 9-in. cutout, and a pair of Pioneer 3-way speakers in the trunk
