Re: my 68 shortbed build
That dash is killer can we see a pic of the guages through the steering wheel? I guess what im asking is can we see what you see while your looking through the wheel.

Re: my 68 shortbed build
Hey just gotta say awesome truck saw it today at good guys would have been cool to meet you but you weren't by the truck when I saw it. I think it definitely looks alot better now than when I saw it two years ago at the show love the coy wheels and bench seat cleaned up the look of the truck. Also cool to see more of us younger guys building these trucks keep it up
