Nice job on the cluster.

fwiw, I've never seen a Camaro cluster with a LC (or any L code). Could be due to the red color...

Jim, looking great and liked the header/Gardner Exhaust set up. Laughed at the "Chick header mod" TY.....

Kurt, our 68Z gage panel label was "NL" and had "black" listed on label. Curious why the color listed or why different labels for different interior colors?

That looks better. Maybe NP? Not NF.
Including the color seems a little over the top, IMO. The operator could see the interior color...
