By the way, welcome to the board. Again, that is one nice truck. Would love to see more pictures inside and out and what you have under the hood.

Just one question, you put all those gauges in the dash, but not the tach?

It's Dodge Viper blue, i can get you the paint code if you like. As far as the picture on the tailgate I'll get a picture of it up in a couple of days, we have alot of snow on the ground around here and my baby is locked up and covered up tight!

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds

I prefer the tach on the dash in this truck, i was shooting for the race type set up but also the comfort, and i believe when you need to be watching your rpms for the reason that i dont have a rev limiter in my truck its nice, mainly when your running a respectable power street engine you dont want to be looking down to check your revs at 100mph that could mean the wall lol. My new project which is a 81 one ton dually crew cab will have all the gauges in the dash.
