While I worked in the dashboard, I installed the gauges at the same time. Some times I just jumped around while reassembling depending how I felt. You can see the ampmeter to voltmeter change is not really noticeable.
I cleaned and painted the external oil filter fram orange and added a couple of stickers for looks. When I installed it, I had to slightly ream the holes to align with the Offenhauser manifold I had installed.
I also changed to dual stainless steel headers and removed the studs at the front and rear. I drilled and tapped the holes to bolt the headers down. I figured it would seal a little better.
I added tubing lines to bring some heat to the bottom of the intake manifold to help atomize the fuel. I made a stainless steel plate to fit the bottom and drilled and tapped to screw fitting to accept the stainless tubing I used. I also made two small aluminum shrouds to capture heat for the automatic chokes, even though I backed them off and don't really use them.
Then I decided to tackle the glass. I bought all grey glass for all windows. The driver and passenger windows were hard to install the glass with the setting tape just like the vent window. The corner windows took a lot of pushing and pulling to make them look good. One of them, when almost complete, looked like it was off to on side. So I pulled it out and started over.
I did get an extra set of hands when I got to the windshield and it made a difference. The sealer I used, I found on this site in one of the forums and bought it from NAPA but can't remember the specific part number.
Since the look I was going for was original, I bought the too expensive retro original-looking radio. I took all the knobs and backing parts that were originally tan and painted them with vinyl paint semi-gloss black to contrast the green. It is nice because I did not intend to add an antenna but can Bluetooth from my phone. I have added one of those hidden antenna but it's not that good. In all fairness we are not in a big city so radio signals are not that strong here.
