I got a little painting done after the many, many, hours of block sanding.
I also got some goody's for the truck. I went with the Dakota Digital VHX 55-56 Belair gauges.

Beautiful work, the hours of block sanding have paid off and I love the color. Us green guys gotta stay together
I have Speedhut gauges in my 53 but I think I'm going with Dakota's in my 71 Camaro, they look nice and are built about an hour from me.
