Good Morning All,

It was kinda a slow week. We were waiting for parts from Billet Specialties (man are these nice pieces).
We ordered there Column, 2 1/2" Drop, Steering wheel and all the other little pieces to that we needed.

Here is the New Steering Wheel.



New Billet Column - To bad you can't see how nice it is.



You can see the dash bezel is starting to take shape.



Slid the column in place

I figure I am going to say it before someone else does.
Yep my shaft is just a little bit to long.
I dropped it off at Billet Specialties and they said they are going to remove the needed 6".



Here is a close up of the dash bezel




That's all for this week.

Although very custom, that dash should look like a factory piece when done. Very nice.

Looks like I'm going to be investing in a sheet metal brake!

I have a friend on this BB that is considering making a mold of this dash in fiberglass. So he can offer it to others.

Good Day All,

Sorry it took so long to send this out it was a long weekend.

Well the shaft has been shortened and it fits really nice.
Shinny isn't it.



Yep looks just like last week how ever the shaft doesn't hang out of the firewall by 6"



Okay looking for some photoshop help here - any one interested in mocking up the dash for me.

I would sure love the help and visual of what the dash may look like.



This is going to be the location of the Billet Specialties Vents.

Dave hung the Brake Pedal - We are going to remake this in Billet to match the pedal.



You can see the balance bar under the dash for the Dual Master Cylnder Set Up.



The new Master Cylnders - we may change these to something a little cleaner looking.



Wait there is my steering shaft hanging out of the firewall.
Please don't make a comment about my u-joint.



We did a lot of talking for next weeks mods.
