That ashtray blackout is interesting. I've never seen that before and my car was black interior, but is now gold. Was that blackout on all other colors in '67-68 ? Looks like something I should be doing too.

Chevrolet didn't want dash colour showing through, especially when the ash tray was in the closed position. I'm sure that would've been done on any car that didn't have a black dash. Lots of cars did this kind of shadowing to help their looks....Joe

Mitch, yes that ashtray blackout is correct for a non-black interior.

SMS, related to the interior gloss level, does the dash carrier and steering column get the same semi-gloss finish?

great work, detail and color!

Yes. This 1968 chart shows the gloss level for the various interior components and what colors go with the trim tag number. The ones I marked happen to be for my 725 interior for the dash top and general interior paint.

Also this is the flattening agent I used on the dash face and glove box door.
