Thanks. There are several colors of rattle...they even make it to work on plastics now...

Btw, I love the red interior reference pic. Sporty!
Shaved firewall will definitely be a nice touch also.

Thanks man, I just LOVE the way the smooth firewalls look, I've wanted a nice A/C setup, and I just picked up a frame mounted brake bracket.

I really like that red interior. It won't look the same because I am not changing my dash, but I will be smoothing the center part of the dash between the gauge bezel and the glovebox door. The console will end up flowing up into the dash and to the back and into the sub box behind the seats.

Thanks. It took about 6-7 hours to clean the bottom of the cab that clean between undercoating, dirt, and rust. Started with the wire wheel to knock off the most junk and went to the grinder to take it to bare metal.
