Re: Project '86
your friends must get sick of you calling them to take the cab and bed off every week. the rc car videos are pretty cool too.

as for the dash, how do you think a 60-66 dash would look. i bet you could do someting pretty cool with it and it would tie in with the hood

Re: Project '86
The vid was kewl. I must say you should get the award for the best metalwork in a outside garage. Hell ... I've seen worse from high end closed in shops.

Please continue.

Re: Project '86
Thanks guys, no updates yet. The steel supplier couldn't get the size I wanted so instead of notifying me they just didn't place the order. I now have a 5x10 sheet on order that should arrive any day now.
