Those would be hard to see on mine!

I was going with a 59 dash and decided not to because I have a friend building a Blazer and already did it. They look great in Blazers!

Yep, got it replaced same day. Now I am waiting 5 days for the refund to hit my account. IMO they are essential to have......now that I have one! The bead roller came in last night but I won't have a chance to actually bend metal until this weekend. I am helping my friend Ronnie out. We are taking his other 39 Chevy to a few shops for estimates to get some body work and paint done. I guess that answers your other question! I will do all the initial body work and then let a professional fine tune it. The paint will be pricey so I would hate to blow money on mistakes that I could make doing the paint myself. Although, I will be tempting fate and painting something else this year.
