Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
Looks awesome!! Where did you get the dimple dies? Not that I really need them but I love to own tools
 I went back and looked at your dash and I really think it is the nicest C10 dashes I have seen. Where are you putting your radio? I am going through that decision right now. I really would like to find a remote controled unit I could mount under the dash to to keep it clean. I am also in the defroster vent delima. Looks like you have the billet ones from Vintage Air. Those seem to be the best solution for the dash. I wished someone made something more flush fitting. |

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
Jim do you still have the high hump trans tunnel part? Let me know if you have a list of parts and you are going to be in Houston. I need the hi-hump and drivers door /fender 68.
Thanks Mark |
