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.Old guy hot rodder

YES IT ROCKS!! Very well done Brianrupnow, a nice combination. As Ol' DW says "spearance comes with 'spearance" You can come over and redo my plain Jane dash for me."Sunshine, a street rod and a winding beautiful Ozarks road is truely Bliss!"

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".Old guy hot rodder
You're welcome Mike, glad it worked out for you. Roger, it's taken a few years but my inventory of excess parts has shrunk a fair bit from 1 1/2 garage stalls to about an eight by eight space. ...
