Thought I'd show a little before and after on this lettering I've been doing for my friend and his '71 Challenger R/T... As you can see, the original white is long gone worn off.. Here you can see where I freshened up the letters... Man, these paint markers work great !!!

That does look great.  Did you redo the chromed border part too Troy?  It looks brighter in the second pic.

They do look great Troy.  :cheers: 

I have faded dash parts that need to be freshened up & will try that too, thanks for the tip.

I have a related E-Body question for you, do you need, or have you a decent dash pad, or did you need to replace it? I'm looking for opinions on a replacement for my '71 Barracuda. I don't want to send it out to have it recovered just yet, I'd rather get a replacement if they are good enough.

Thanks, Bob
