Started to slowly work on it a little. I will have alot more time after this month. I wont have any more doctors appointments. Will try to post some pics soon.

what are your plans on mounting the gauges? They can't just lay flat because of the angle of the sheetmetal, so you gonna built some type of cups for them to protrude out of? I really like what you did with the dash and thinking about doing something similar. What are you going to do with the passenger side recessed area?

Propaint81- This truck is actually a different truck then the one you saw at the last year of Showfest. That one is the ''Matt Eye'' truck. That one is still at the shop. Hasnt been worked on in quite awhile. Hopefully we get back on it soon.

Jlaird- The gauges acutally do lay flat on the dash that was made. You can see the gauges very clearly when sitting in the drivers seat. The passenger side is going to get a 7'' screen in it. I have attached some pics of the gauges.

sweet! thanks for the pics. Hope you don't mind, I did a little photochop! This was along the lines I was thinking for mine. What do you think?

FRENCHBLUE72 · 03-12-2010, 02:34 PM

That's very similar to the way I am planning on running mine..

What metal working tools did you use to do that dash? In one of the close-up shots I see how you bent the metal as one piece and welded the seam on the flat end. Very smart! The extent of my metal working experience are patch panels and I shaved my firewall. I'm a little nervous about cutting my dash out, but hopefully all will go well.
