    Thought I would take a few minutes to share my progress with everyone. This project has taken on a life of its own. I really believed (fooloshly) that I would have the car done enough to put in Axels Suede Palace this year at GNRS. I think thats a pipe dream now. So look it over. If you have comments let me have them. No idea is flushed without me considering it. I am not an expert at this by any means (a point you will clearly see in the pictures ) LOLOL

    There is certainly nothing I can add. Other than I would put the factory steering wheel back in it.

    I agree that the wheel has to go. Yuuuch I am grafting in a 53 Chrysler dash and then will start looking at what wheel goes best with that.
