Well finally started and this is as far as I got today, to the left of the cassette player will be a tachometer and cubby hole and the clock is already in. on the right of the cassette is the c-box cassette holders. its in the rough stage but you get the idea. Just some ideas for everyone

yeah those containers are nice to have I know a guy around here I believe sells them for about $3500 but you need a spot to put it also.

Nice work CUSTOM work

man, id be disappointed if your truck never makes it into the pages of minitruckin'. you seriously have one of the most customized trucks on here!!

you should send some pics into minitruckin and see if you could get a constrution zone feature. that would kick so much ass!! and then a cover shot and full feature!!!

Well back to the drawing board... found an overhead console for a 77 Honda I have been looking for years, very very rare . So now I need to redesign mine to fit around it or not at all.
also my son said I should make these with out the clock or switches and sell them that way people could put in there own what evers into it, so should I and would you guys buy them... I thank plane would be $50 .. With clock lights and switches would be $150, so yes no maybe?

Looks good. As for the sale, the prices sound VERY reasonable to me.
