Re: [Project] "Fnlow69" PART II

Lol, well i got the all the A and B pillers welded completely. I had to cut out the strip from dor to door on the roof because it wanted to warp on me so im in the process of welding that again now. I keep forgeting my camera when i work on it so hopefully this weekend ill get some pics.

Ive also been working on patch panels on my brother 50 f*rd, so havent got to work on it to much lately....

Re: [Project] "Fnlow69" PART II

Well got the whole dash mocked in and tacked together, it turn out better than i thought it would. It uses a 1950 ford gauge and the points from the 50 ford dash as well. There are chrome covers that bolt on the ends of the points(need new ones). Anyways let me know what you think...the surprise is still to come.....

Gauge mount.......





Now with the points......






More soon, hope to get it all welded this coming weekend.
