    The clock location would have been a nice place for the tach.

    I like the wheel, may be a little tight around the legs getting in and out since the car is so low, but who cares, that's a cool wheel. What's it from?? and did you use the original column and modify it or what's it on? The dash looks cool, are the gauges going to be functional?

    I think its a late 40's ford wheel. Still unsure tho. I bought a steering column with a quick release hub on it from speedway and shorten it. Then welded a bung to the back of the wheel to make it adapt to the column. As for the gauges im gonna try and make them all function. I can't wait to cruise in this thing
