Anyway i see its been awhile since any updates...is the truck done??? it ought to be by now! :frog:

and if it aint done yet...post some damn pics of your progress!!! LOL

Take Care!
Kris

I would love to say there is more updates, but unfortunately there isn't :(
It has not been touched in an EXTREMELY long time after a bad break up and **** going here or there, all the tools being taken, it's sat. I took on the Cadillac as priority now that I have tools again, because it was a lot closer to being completed. The truck will be coming up next, once the caddy is finished. It's just taking A LOT of money, so little by little and one project at a time. Once I have one show vehicle complete, it'll get worked on. :) Not too much left to do on the C10. The caddy will be completed by next Saturday.. I'll be posting pics on that build thread, so keep an eye out.

The dash in the C10 was fairly simple. You just strip all the foam off of it and it's bare metal underneath. Body work/sand it and then paint and clear. Obviously a little modification was needed for the (2) TV's I put in there.. depending on where you mount them you just have to rough them in. :)

Thank you! Unfortunately the pics I have posted were the only pics I took. That dash is sitting in a closet upstairs in my house lol.. It needs to be repaired. My ex decided it was a good idea to take it out and buff it after he installed it.. buffer was too big, grabbed an edge and threw the dash off the bench.. cracked all the body work.. so yeah. LOL :)
