Well got the indicator light recess in and now just need to test fit all switches and a coat of filler and paint  Picked up a clean grill, will use a few of my own good chrome bits to finish it off, But very happy with it.  |

John I wish i could say I used some home made jig and pressed them out .. but all I did was used the old recess from the cluster I cut up .. then just filled in the slots with some weld. Drilled the holes out to the correct size. simple as that. |

Hey Cam, the link for the video doesn’t open fully, just shows the static photo. Looks good, as you said, once it all comes together it should look great.

Some in rear guard work , took off the inner layer to find a lot of rust surrounding the lead seam join.   Made a new piece and weld it in.. Will have to do the other side now I know there is that much rust under there. Finished inner  Nice new out rigger, will add the new mounts when I perform and engine test fit. New mounts and out rigger from Pete Mallaby, really nice parts  |
