Was that spotwelded at the linw of holes at the top of the dash? I need to rebuild my glovebox shelf (rusted out) and am trying to figure out how to get back there.

Yours IS looking good!

 

[paranoid56]

yea, a crap load of spot welds, and the welds on the side of the dash also. its a lip that folds over the top. you will need to fold down the windsheild to get to it. even with all the spot welds drilled, it was still a pain in the ass. oh, and you first have to drill the spot welds off on the dash cap shelf.

After seeing these new guage clusters, I think that it is time to "rethink" my stock configuration. Looks very good guys!

Yeah, I used durabak roll on bed liner on my whole cruiser. It is easy to repair, all I have to do is clean the spot from any dirt and roll on some more. It cost about $700 to do the whole cruiser, and frame, and everybody that see`s it, they think I sprayed it on.
