Jekyl.Hyde.Kustoms Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 I rarely post on here. Mostly just lurk, but thought I'd post a link to the feature that Mini Truckin' Magazine did on my truck from last month's issue. http://www.minitruck...620_down_n_out/ 1965 Ford F-100 Dash, '63 Gauge Cluster with custom gauges. 6 Quote Link to comment

Eagle_Adam Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 wow, clean swap, clean interior, great dash swap.......... love it! Quote Link to comment
Jekyl.Hyde.Kustoms Posted November 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 Thanks, it's still not done. I just wanted to enjoy it like this for a while. It'll be getting painted the metallic brown that is in the engine bay, and that crappy corrugated plastic intake tube will be gone soon. Also need to source some carpet and finish off the interior.

uieluck Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 Nice truck,, love the style and touches. However, I can't stand hydraulics,, static all the way IMO. Otherwise, totally rad. Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 I'm with Adam. How'd you do the roof? I am not a 620 kinda-guy at all. But that is just rad. Good work! Quote Link to comment
Jekyl.Hyde.Kustoms Posted November 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 Thanks guys I'm with Adam. How'd you do the roof? I am not a 620 kinda-guy at all. But that is just rad. Good work! It was pretty easy, actually. Maybe I'll write up a how-to sometime, if there's interest. Basically laid out the checker and sprayed it with the red, let it dry, then sprayed black over top. After that was dry, it was wet sanded to the desired effect. 1 Quote Link to comment
