Well I was inspired to do some painting today and here are the before and after pictures.
Started with the 68 1600 shift plate I had in the car (see it next to the old 67 plate) I did some silly things in my teens with the shift boot.
Got some of this at the local hardware store: Then the result is
Like the result with the textured paint. I still need to cleenup from the overspray when someone (not me) painted the darker color. Think this was factory overspray? Some of it is poor taping be me but not all of it.
Anyway closer to 67 style. Still not sure when or if I will paint the dash. Thanks to all for the input so far.
