Thanks Guys - It's going to be a street buggy mostly . - Tom - The plate is off my trailer and was only on to check clearances when welding on the licence plate mounting tabs and light . It's never been registered while I've had it.

That body sure looks sexy. Nice curves and lines and the color brings them out well. Any pics of the hood?

Boy that's one nice project. The color looks a foot deep. You should be very proud of your FDB.

[QUOTE="michael cook"]lokks real good did you use a wiring harnees kit or do it from scratch it looks very neatly done mike[/QUOTE] Mike- I started with a wire harness from American Autowire: http://www.americanautowire.com/product ... s_Kits.cfm , but ended up making much more than I got because of the sound system and my brake/blinker set up didn't work with the harness . Never did wiring before so massive learning curve . But everything works now and I haven't seen any smoke yet .Ran the harness through the center tunnel which makes it so there aren't wires hanging all over the place . Tom

I am confused you have two dashes or is one picture before the stereo system? The photo on the first page appears to be a different configuration. Either way they both look very nice man!!! Great work!!!

[/QUOTE] Thanks Mvovr,sorry for the confusing photo. The dash face that the gauges mount in was just set on a box,while I wired everything,at roughly the location it will be once the hood is installed . At the end of the day I picked the dash off the box- rotated it 180 degrees and set it on top of the electric panel and took the photo . Once the hood is installed the dash will be right at the very bottom of the photo with the gauges facing you.If you look at the very top of the photo you can just see some of the gas tank .Will post a better photo when I find it .
