rambler dash mod pics

[radrambler]

hey guys

kinda doesnt look like much but did a little mod to my dash yesterday.
in place of where the old heater control went i made a hinged door.i did this out of a spare glove box door ...made a template and transfered on to the spare glove box door ..cut it out (because the metal has same shape at left of dash as the glove box) then i remove the hinge from the glove box and reversed it because it would fit of course.. made a lil spot in the inside of dash opening for the hinge to be screw down..yes removable if needed...
and bam ..... i have a place to hide switches or controls of somesort..
looks like it was factory.....i like to make things look like they came on it ..takes more time but also makes for cool features.
also my gauge cluster holes in the housing are 2 1/16 so .. i used a dremel and modified the back side (removed some unneeded plastic tabs that held stock gauge)... so i can run autometer gauges(PHANTOMS) inside the stock clutser..housing will be refinished....here are the pics ..LIGHTING SUCKED .....



thank for looking
