C.Sanchez.A Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 I figured I should start posting my build now so I don't have so much "footage" to go throughout later. I warn you now this will take awhile and some time will pass between up dates (at least until the end of march)First off: Custom dashThis is my first attempt and I take it as a learning experience. I will be doing a full custom dash eventually.Step 1: RemovalA little vid of my hard work. Still needed to get to work.

C.Sanchez.A Posted February 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 As of today the dash is waiting for warmer weather, but the cold hasn't stopped me from moving forward. I've started getting the cab ready for every thing else + stared planing the sub box Making a false wall to square every thing. The top of the box will come even with the bottom of the window, which mean I will be building a false floor as well.
