Center Console Question
I know a clean cab floor is "traditional", but I had the hardware. I bent up a little 16 gauge. The photos are not the best quality, but give me your opinion. I was going for simplistic. How'd I do?

Re: Center Console Question
pretty nice. it's amazing how small these cabs are once you put in the seat. you might want to consider some sort of place to put a cellphone or ipod. maybe a side compartment.

Re: Center Console Question
Thanks for the input. I had never worked with a sheet metal break before this project. I'm getting better at it - I think. - Jeff

Re: Center Console Question
Awesome work! Is that TIG welding I see between the two "boxes"?
Yeah there isn't much space in general in the cab, but one place where there's a ton of space is below the console. I have seen some custom consoles under the dash that make a lot of sense. Custom stereos, A/C vents, and much more. I think I am going to have to try for a custom below-dash console. Steve |
