Re: Project "Financial Burden": 1968 SWB C10
I made good progress on finishing up the interior since the dash wiring is now complete. I spent quite a bit of time time mocking up the shifter and shifter handle. I 3D printed a shifter base using the dimensions from Core Shifters and then made a cardboard version of a Hurst shifter handle. In the end I went with a Mopar B body shifter handle and the Core Shifter forward shifter conversion with the "F" fulcrum height. The shifter travel is just 3.5 inches from first to second. I used the stock 4-speed shifter bezel and boot and 3D printed a transition bezel from the rectangular stick to the round hole in the boot. Lastly, I put all the electronic modules in the glove box and I really like the Restomod Air AC controls and the Dakota Digital RTX gauges. My to-do list before starting paint and body is getting small.
