NA6CE 1992 Form vs Function Build and History

[— kung fu jesus —]

Fortunately, I was taking a break when I read Tony's suggestion.

I took a little time and placed patches of sound deadener on broader sections on the underside of the dash. I used a heat gun and a stiff spatula to help adhere it to the surfaces.

Some are hidden by pieces already assembled.

I found hollow spots and such by shaking the assembly by the crash bar and knocking around the top of the dash. The noises began changing from a "tonk!" to a "thud". Time and trial will tell if it really works, but I think it will help a noticeable amount.

It occurred to me where the biggest echo chamber was on the dash and nipped it in the bud. The sound change after putting deadener here was drastic:
