There was a truck featured in the June 2006 Streettrucks that had a sheet metal dash. Here is a link to the pictures on their website.

Nothing fancy, its gonna follow the door panel lines and just go straight across.

The gauges I got to put in it. Wiring them is going to suck.

looks good. i dont like the idea of loosing the a/c but i need something better than GM dashes which usually crack. i like what your doing with yours and probably will do the same so the door panels match up correctly.

if you would, could you take more pictures as your progress for me?

I don't know about sheet metal, I was gonna do mine out of glass, seems like you could be more creative that way. of course building a badass dash out of metal would be even more impressive.

I just moved and I am waiting for the garage to be wired for 230. That is happening in 2 weekends. Once that happens, i will post some new pics.

The first truck has the entire build on their shop website and it it very impressive. I remember that one guy KDUBAZ got in an argument with the BD'd 24's over in the snapshots section was working on a fairly impressive dash fabbed from scratch too.
