Thanks for all the compliments guys, Work has me all bogged down at the moment, as a mater of fact, thats where i am right now.:( I have the filler section to mate the two peices together sitting here in my office staring at me or should i say teasing me, thats why I don't have pics yet.

Thats how I feel. This is definately a one of a kind, in fact, it may be the only 68 chevy with an edsel dash. I have never seen an edsel dash in another car. Its not that often you get to see one in an edsel....lol

That is a question I have asked myself and I just can't answer that yet. I am leaning on leaving but it would be cool If I could get that peice made with the same writing only say chevrolet...

Well I have a picture now of the filler panel but I took it with my cell phone so the quality may not be as good as the last photos.

That is awesome. Extremely unique and looks good. I like the way it wraps around onto the doors.

I can't wait to see it all together. I think that is going to be really sharp!

Cee Ten, what year chevy is that dash from?

Great work on the dash. Leave the name on it, or most folks won't have a clue that it isn't stock :)
Get to work!
Now!
More pics [grin]...........

I have found a couple of minutes to work on my truck. I got the filler peice trimmed and just about ready to weld in for good.

Very creative - you have some talent!

Re: My new dash
 
I think that'll be an awesome look when you get it all finished up!

Re: My new dash
 
I really do hope this turns out good. The metal part will be fine, its the trim and dash components I am worried about. I think I can get it looking good though. Time will tell.
