Dash Pictures

A couple more pics of the ongoing saga of gusso`s new dash for your
viewing pleasure. Next pictures will be of it installed - then no more
boring pictures. I promise.

53otm,

Have four rocker switches---one for hazard lights, one for dome and courtesy lights,
one turns off coil, and one for alarm. Guess I should take a pic or two now that it`s finished.
Thanks for asking.

Gary

The dash looks great Gary.
your whole truck is looking very sharp! the paint is beautifull, and the pinstriping really adds a touch of "cool".

Very nice Gary. Love the pics and the progress. Your text on the dash backside pic is similar to mine, see my gallery to see what I did with my loom. I bench wired and left a 3 foot lead to allow a no lay,no bend install. Again, looking great.
Jon

Bob -- the paint brand code is 3686 called Tan. I think its a 2001 Ford color

Jon -- I`ve looked at your gallery before. Did you make up the harness for your gauges
or was it purchased? If you made it up where did you get the wire plugs? Really a nice
job and very neat. Gotta make it a snap to hook up and disassemble. I`d like to do mine
like that, if I could find that type of plug.

Wayne -- and all. Thanks for the kind words. Wayne, we all strive to have a ride as fantastic as yours, but somehow we, at least me, always come up short. You have
a ride I dream of having.

Gary
