SSABMUD, That looks great. The console and dash really flow together. Great job. Keep the pictures flowing.

Thanks Shannon. I changed the seats three times and the console twice because they just did not work with the dash. After the fibreglass work is done, the whole interior will work even better. Need to move the AC vents again, and the brake pedal sucks. I just hope I don't screw it up.

Re: My 1952 truck.

Photos of the Willys. It belonged to my Uncle whom I was going to help him fix it up one day. Sadly I lost him and my Mother gave the Willys and a 1926 Ford roadster to me. I had them shipped to my house and decided to restore them in his honor. The Willys is done but I am collecting parts for the roadster. I did Find a near new turtle deck for it in the US which was a major hurdle. The Willys took me nearly two years of hard work and a fair bit of cash as you can see it was very rough fresh off the farm. It had the wrong engine in it but I found the original in three 5 gallon pails with a spun crank and rods. I am very happy to have finished it and it reminds me of him every time I see it. Thanks for the interest.

Thanks, when the cat is away, the mice will play. I have so many little things to do on mock up before taking it apart and starting on the frame. The snow will be flying up here in a couple months and I have a new sled coming along with a turbo kit that needs to be put on. Maybe that will take my mind off the truck for awhile. Doubt it.
