    Now this really Rocks!!!!

     



    This is what I'm going to see from the seat of the roadster pickup.
    Autometer golden oldy instruments, Billet Specialties gauge panel, Brookville 32 style dash for closed car, and dash rail by Old Henry himself. I am impressed, and believe it or not, in 40 years of hot rodding this is the first set of instruments that I actually bought as a set. (of course this set and dash panel cost as much as the first 3 cars I bought, combined). Now that I know what interferances I have to cope with, I can fabricate some kind of structural support to run behind the dash to support my column drop.

    Brian, very nice! I am amazed that you find the time to do this nice work, looks good. Still I am mulling over one of the gauge holders that puts the speedo right in from of the wheel so I will think on this more.

    I love the truck!! Looks like a fun cruiser. Gauges really have a cool vintage look. While you are at it, you can put gauges in my truck too. If not, I may just have to settle with pulling off the faceplate and painting the needle. Owell.

    I don't know what you mean by "do eagles". About 50 years ago I used to do "snow angels".
