saved a dash today !
My son and I have been pritty board lately, so tonight we decided to install a new radio in Jenna's 71. We all have thought about cutting the dash. But we did not have the heart. The leg room was a must also, and the consule was too large. So heres some pic's of what Kevin and I did tonight.
Oh ya we also installed a sirius satellite radio.

Ya he is always wanting to help me so I figured put the little guy to work. He is a good little helper. He is almost 3, and he took the front bolts out of the seat for me. After I broke them loose for him. I was pritty amazed at how much he has learned. he knows how to use a socket set and he knows what a 1/2" socket is on the first try. He is going to be a car and truck nut just like his dad.
