Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK 6.2L with 6L80E
ok, getting this thread back to the top.......the vettes dash was gonna be modded to fit this dash, but after looking at it and measureing the curved peices look good on the vette dash cause its small.....put the same curved peices on a truck dash, and they look small.....so keeping with that look im gonna make my own dash outta metal......so after cutting the dash appart, i welded in a filler peice for the whole dash, then bent up some tube stock round bar......to get the skelaton on the dash.....

Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK 6.2L with 6L80E
very interesting concept... are the window defrost holes not centered on the original dashes? Are you gonna fill them in too?
