Dashboard Sneak Peak!

Its been said that noting can improve a 40 Ford dashboard..

while that may be true, in the name of recycling I am hopeful that this solution might be good enough

the dash is a "recycled" fiberglass dash, from another rodders abandoned project..

I had previously considered a simple 3 gauge arrangement,but I have since decided that was a poor idea..

more recently I obtained another vintage dashboard and am working on its installation.. in some ways this will resemble a 40 standard dashboard.. ONLY better.

Helpers..

Raising a family while attempting to complete projects like this can be a challenge.
today my youngest woke from her nap just early enough to help me with the wiring job.

while my eldest practiced her hammering technique..


More photos of wires later..

Small projects.. Take the most time.

its amazing, how a little simple project, takes the most time..

assemble, fabricate, tack weld, disassemble, finish weld, reassemble... test

what a day.. in the end.. it works!
