    When the dash was taken out the first time (not me), some how the dash got a nice notched dent and hole in it (top right of pic). Cant see it when the dash is in the truck... but definitely can see it when its out and I will know its there...

    Hard to tell. But somewhere along the line in this trucks life, the radio mount was "hogged" out. Not sure what I will do about that...

    Some where in Eleanor's history, the dash was apart before. The plastic heater switch mechanism was discovered to be broken when we freed it. (Its the crappy white plastic piece behind the heater controls)

    non sexy stuff Finally got the dash apart and opened to reveal nothing sexy at all. In contrast though, amazing the lack of wiring in the wiring harness in the 1978. Removal will be easy, clean up will be nasty, but really I feel I am on the last hurdle of this project. But, while I am in...

    Never. I am just a bit overwhelmed with the wiring. Did I mention I am not an electrician, nor a electrical engineer. Hell, I'm lucky I can chew bubble gun and walk at the same time.

    update In the middle of doing non-sexy, update worthy stuff such as taking dash apart, matching up wires, splicing and dicing miles of spaghetti, trying to figure out heater controls, etc. Once the dash and internal wiring harness is situated, I will be posting pictures and updates on the...

    That's awesome! Once I get this wiring harness situated, not much to do but sort out the minor mechanical bits and its road time (and picture time).

    SOLD! Not the truck, the seats. LoL. So without hacking the floor up and creating a super sexy one off floor, the correct way to keep this build budget friendly was to bid adieu to the King Ranch dreams and focus on what is now affectionately titled "hell's spider web" and figure out the...

    I appreciate the info most certainly. Its a slow process, but I am making some headway at least. More to come once I get this wiring harness sorted out.

    You guys were awesome in helping me loading it that night. Me and my son were super exhausted, and you made it very simple to get it on so we could get back on the road.
