Hey guys,
Finally I can say the dash is complete, here are some pics. After just under 60 hours of work into it!! When I get back home @ Thanksgiving from school, I will wet sand it, and polish it, I've knocked the highbuild down to 320 before I layed color down, and you can definately tell from the depth!!! Still no word on the Carbon Fiber for the Targa Top, Hurricane Wilma still has my supplier without power. Hopefull it'll be there waiting on me for Thanksgiving weekend, so I can get that done, and the dash installed, as well as guages,a nd everything in, and get you some more pics!! For now...enjoy....

he gunned it if he had canned it i think there would have been too many runs and he did such a nice job making it i dont think he would hack it up using cans he mostlikly used a gun besides thats too smooth and clean to be canned
