Thanks Bart, ya, the dash is my pride and joy right now. Maybe after EJS I can start making the rest of the truck cool too.
Mike T, yes, I will take the 208, does it have both flanges on it?

I can't tell for sure, but I think maybe you should practice posting pics by posting a much bigger version of your avatar..... Just sayin....

That's pretty much what I wanted to know about it. 
Well that and "Can you make me one and how much beer is it"
If you've got the 208 and are going to a Doubler the 241 isn't really worth the trouble.. and, you can SYE the 208 w/Dodge/Jeep parts, can't do that w/a 241... Guts and oiling were beefed up in the 241 but I doubt your motor will notice. Low range is 2.72:1.

And Meat and Mike thurston are giving me a couple 208's, so i think thats the next project after EJS.
Tacoma, let me see how much sheet metal I have after I finish a couple little projects. It was really not that hard to build the dash, the hardest part is making it fit really nice against the curve of the windshield and firewall. We'll chat after EJS. Are you going down this year?

I got a VIN, I got a VIN, I got a VIN hey hey hey hey!!!!!
Yep, finally, I went down to the DMV yesterday with some new pics of the truck that make it look a little more street legal and they finally gave me my new Restoration VIN so I can register it as street legal instead of OHV!!!!!!!!!
Now, I have to add some stupid CAT's to get the Safety&I/M.
Atleast I will be able to get the temp tags in time for EJS.
On another cool note, I talked to a guy today that helped the PO build the motor, can you say "383 Stroker" saweet,
Also, Nick and Scott, "SchaferNsons" came to the shop today and help me with a lot of the little projects. Got all the rock light installed and wired, oil guage working, reverse light working, hole cut in dash for stereo, wipers wired and working.
Still need to install the new fuel tank, build a battery box, install the speakers and subs, and we should be ready to rock in EJS.

Woot!
Do you have something in mind already? I just used an RV battery box behind the passenger seat, I had a battery hold down that went over the battery (inside the box) and down through the floor.

ya, for now, I am just going to build a frame out of angle, then bolt that to the firewall, then run to support rods down below that, then bolt a tray that I bought at Napa to that frame, after moab when I have more time, I am going to use some of the sheet metal I have to build a weather tight box.

What year did they classify it as? 79? I never had cats on my 78 and my 76 doesn't have them either.
