Hi guys! This build and thread isn’t dead! Haha I just had two cars to build for TROG! Now back to the Blue Martian! [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I haven’t thought of that, that’s a really good idea!
I do like this idea with everything wrapped up in one unit, would look cool in the center of the dash
Here you go, here is some perspective on how big the bullet is compared to the speedo, it should be mostly bullet and shaped right into the speedo...
Thank you Stogy, with everything I’ve done it still looks like the picture of the truck from 1965, and our vision for it hasn’t changed,...
When I first saw the truck I wanted to bring it back as a survivor, and when I got all the back story of the truck the plan was to build it back...

I have a 39 dash in my roadster

Got the carbs and intake figured out! New valve covers from Spotlite Kustom! Made a subfloor for the bed and got the gas tank mounted! [ATTACH]...
Made up some rear bed mounts for the frame, I used the original hood latch bracket off of the frame, welded it to a nice round stock, and now the...
Luckily I welded in braces right where the body sat on the frame, so when it went onto this frame the depth of the channel is exactly the same,...
Thank you!
