Re: Ricks Restore
I am interested. I think these are the best types of posts. If gives the guy trying this down the road a picture how to. This is why I try to post a lot of pics when I am doing a project. It always helps when you do a search and someone else has done what you are attempting to do and has documented it well with pictures. Please keep the posts coming.

Re: Ricks Restore
Here they are- some pics did not come thru and the order was jumbled but I tried to put them in order.

New Jersey must truly be the chemical state. Look at all those mutant white deer. Since deer only live a short number of years, and seeing what chemical exposure has done to them, imagine what it is doing to you

Re: Ricks Restore
Thanks Top. Raymond, Those deer all came from one mother with the exception of the smallest one which is the offspring of one of the large ones there. That mother was 11 years old.

Re: Ricks Restore
Outstanding job Rick!
BTW: Those white deer make them easy to see at night on the side of the road.

Re: Ricks Restore
Well this was a productive weekend. Made the side dash panel complete, took it apart again and started over. Got it right the second time. All is welded in now and ready for finishing. Top put some pictures up for me but I am having a real problem with Photobucket getting things out of order. I opened a new folder and uploaded everything at once. That is a little better but still problems. Anyway I will put some pictures up and also a link to the photobucket album and you can wander all you want. I will add explanations to some of the pictures down the road. You welders out there will recognize the significance of the pictures of the gauges, I cut it real close!










I had some of the finished product but Photobucket moved them again! This is a pain in the ass.

Re: Ricks Restore
The shielding gas always goes empty on Saturday or Sunday when the local welding shops are closed. Then I figured out Tractor Supply has a bottle exchange. Now I can get it done on Sunday also. You did cut it close. Nice work.
