Quadrasteer? Why would you hide such a beautiful thing? I love it!

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
I think I would explode if I kept a secret like that. Especially the midnight pics, I would miss my editing and slip.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Here is my custom plenum piece for connecting my new air unit to my old AC vents. The bottom is open to the new unit. I ended up eliminating the middle vent double sided hose connector and just attached my plenum box directly to it. The outer vents connect by old hoses into each side of my new plenum. Since the plenum is metal it would want to sweat/condensate and drip onto the carpet so I insulated it here with stick on foam insulation.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Going back thru the pages, on 71/72 you have the cab mating with the frame. There's a big spaghetti mess sitting on top of the rear axle housing.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Your hidden cluster is too nice to hide. That steering wheel looks awesome in there by the way!

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Cool new wheel!
Where did you get the steering wheel "hub" for that wheel? I have an original 64-66 corvette wheel, that I need one for. They are different than the other "3-spoke" steering wheel hubs.

The whole thing was a kit from The Car Shop.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Looks good! Do you have a wood grain inlay for the gauge cluster?

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
We're back at the lake again this weekend, so no real internet. I do have the dash finished and installed, but I'm not able to post a pic. I know, I know - pics or it didn't happen. I'll hit y'all up Sunday.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Not yet, and I've lost them. There's quite a few items like that that I still need to finish, but nothing that really matters for the Power Tour.
