hey guys I finally got some pix of my panel. I haven't started the resto yet, but cannot wait!

zenish · 11-28-2004, 07:02 PM

your floor is different from mine.

saxmo · 11-28-2004, 09:45 PM

is yours the one-piece floor? I've heard of some having that one.

4x4Poet · 11-29-2004, 08:56 PM

You obviously enjoy a challenge!

But I have so much faith in you, I'm going to pimp the last thing you will probably install. A new dash.

P.S. Save the metal (unmolested) from the original dash. I think Just Dashes can use it to build a new dash around, if only as a core exchange.

That is a sweet dash. How much is it?

Nice progress on the old girl

That rendering looks great

**Canadian694x4** · 05-31-2006, 01:44 AM

Great Progress! Keep Up The Great Work!

saxmo · 06-05-2006, 01:16 PM

thanks guys!!

da-burb · 06-22-2006, 10:50 PM

Back in '04 it looked like a twin to my 69 panel. I hve the same tan/brown interior too!

86swb · 07-09-2006, 04:11 PM

That is going to be one sweet ride!

saxmo · 07-09-2006, 04:23 PM

thanks, my kids are looking forward to the finish also, because I am gonna put tvs and xboxes in it.

86swb · 07-09-2006, 06:03 PM

I am also thinking of putting some speakers under the back seat but not really sure what box to use or which would be the best speakers. I am not very good when it comes to speakers ect. I will be running the wires when I put in better carpet under the seats and also some sound deading material. Good luck with your project.
