Looks really good. I especially like the steering wheel/column set up.

No but I may have given Ken Fedor in middle michigan an extra hood with some on it when I sold him the 39 commander.
I have a glove box interior in condition which is only good enough to use as a pattern. I may be able to make you a drawing to build one from.Diesel loving, autocrossing, Coupe express loving, Grandpa Architect.

I let my pin striper get a little creative on the gauge faces. The speedo is too far gone to work so we decided to make it a little different.
Hopefully one day I will run a cross a new mechanism and will be able to swap it out. The Gas has an in line RUNTZ 12v to 6v reducer and temp and oil are manual and work fine however I'm a little worried that the temp of the Hemi will exceed the gauge capability and it will appear pegged. I'm going to do a hot water test with the wife's kitchen thermometer. At least I can have an idea of what 195 will look like on the gauge before it goes in the car.

Unique gauges for sure. The speedometer will take some getting used to, but after that it will be like me driving with a tach."In the heart of Arkansas."

He gang, its been a while since I posted, Had a few other things going with my other 2 cars but I have been plugging away on super boring details that don't make for very good photos. Front end aliments, packing wheel bearings, bleeding brakes, floor paint and insulation, making transmission cooling lines, fitting the inner fenders around the MMII front end, radiator brackets and hoses. But all that stuff has added up to IT RUNS!
I guess it has a new birthday now. Sept 16 was the day this car moved under its own power for the first time in about 30 to 40 years.
A few links to follow in the next 2 posts.
