Paid $50 for that and a bezel and a 710 dipstick and some spare relays...

It's nice to be back in the land of intact interiors

My dash WAS intact untill the transmission and transfer case got a divorce...... Now theres an ape sized fist hole in the dash.... Ok ok its not ape sized but it was enough to send a crack all the way back and leave a nice little hole... I attempted mid swing to stop cause i knew the outcome but it was to late lol

Step one: unscrew the old dash.

Step two: screw the new dash into place.

I was careful during extraction to not break anything, so the installation should be straightforward, just gotta do it backwards


Plus this time I'll pull the seat so the steering wheel/column can go farther down.

Started working on the new stainless exhaust system, waiting on mandrel bent parts, two 90's, two tight 90's and two 45's, then I can start welding/making up the front part of the system. I removed the rear H this time round.
