Re: For your viewing pleasure

Re: For your viewing pleasure

Your own TV show? Saweet.

The truck looks freakin' excellent man!

That's the metal portion of the dash that's showing right? (never knew that if so)

What would be incredibly cool is to massage that into a nice looking full metal dash like our pre-73 trucks have.
