Yes, quite the shop isn.t it? I need to do something cause its not working well. No room at all!!!

thanks, that would be great- I think that would look killer with it all turned blue/green

Oldsmobile gauges Here is the 55 olds gauge cluster. I will have to build a custom dash and trim to make it all work together. the chrome will go .... copper plating will be in its place. the new bezel, trim, headlight rings and other accent parts will be copper. I know that theres something to...

How about some old gauges, rebuilt- I just bought a '55 olds gauge cluster -looks cool but needs a custom made dash to fit. Alot of cool old stuff out there.

Bumper looks great on there, you could even get a smoothy bumper for a newer truck (paintable or rustable) and cut some out of the middle to shorten it. That stock frame could prob. be diced up and welded back with proper kick-ups for layin rockers. It is easier to start with new 2x4 tubing for...

those wheels will look awsome on there!

Thanks guys, Guess I should save some pics cause- I haven't touched it in a couple weeks. You know - work , family, money, all the things you don't plan on . I also started my business back up ( construction) closed it in 2009- constuction in Florida was gone. Its just starting back... anyways...

Some pictures of a pair of 1914-16 National headlights that I found at a swap meet, I also found some 1940 ford front drum brakes (complete) and 4- 5 on 5-1/2" rims from a craiglist add in daytona beach. I'm still lookin for some old dash w/ gauges. I saw a 49-50 pontiac silver streak dash that...
