Walnut would have looked much nicer than muddy puddle brown

Well it looks really nice against the green, as for the walnut everybody has it so its not for me. I have a black oak set as well but just didnt think it would suit it. Everybody has different tastes but its my V8 lol! and i love it.

Was that V8 badge already on the wood dash? In the 75 V8s, which have the wooden dash it isn't on their dash (there is the usual spinny wheel for the vents).

The badge was designed for the V8 because it doesn't have the adjustment wheel.
