    Cowl fresh air venting

    Pine needles are the worst! They can and do get thru the cowl screens and are highly acidic, as they break down they greatly contribute to rust. That's why you don't see green turf grass under pines, the soil is too acidic from all the fallen needles. My answer is either park indoors or a car...

    Interior work

    There is a way to redeem yourself in the eyes of the purists who get upset over cutting the panels: paint the speaker grills to match. The greatest offense to the eyes is the glaring mismatch.

    Custom instrument panel face?

    I'm saying screw it all, I'm gonna yank the entire dash from my 73 Newport, dremel off the left section for the wipers & light switch and craft my own dash from a textured acrylic panel (via Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07BCVJ3W9?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share) and a full set of gauges from eBay...
