    Couple of knick knacks before this roof cutting party. The FlamedAbone Pretty Much Universal Steering Column Drop Kit. (tm)

    The stock dash puts the speedo just a bit too far left to be centered with the steering wheel.

    Not moving the column, so...

    If you move the dash insert, then you have to move the glove box hole or the whole thing will be ass-eyed.

    And, it's in there. Hard to take a good shot of a dash, so just imagine it looks pretty OK.

    Speedo is now pretty close enough to dead nuts.

    The old alternator bracket was bugging the shit out of me. I got it down nice and low, but I was going to have to run an electric fuel pump, which I am not a huge fan. So, I built another set up that allows the stock pump and the alternator to co-exist.

    Up a bit higher than the old one but it misses the pump by a good bit.

    Fortunately, that ugly bastard is pretty much covered by the fender apron.

    I think that's it. Next pics should be topless.

    Ass eyed is a term I have never heard. Very funny!
    Your fixes are far from ass eyed.
    Nice solution to the dash and alternator.
