Default 41 woodie dash install

Quite a wrestling match to install the dash on my 41 woodie. I had to take all the steering column bolts to frame loose to get the column to dash bolts fitting at the same time as the bolts on the lower corners. Oh and had to loosen the hood latch cable as well. Did get the cable installed after making 4 fittings to hold it based on pictures a Barner posted of his. The wood graining turned out nice, used the kit from the guy in Florida with graining plate and rollers.

Almost there. Hooked up the hood release today. Got turn signals working, electric wipers working. Need to hook up gauges, paint wheels green, install radio hidden in empty heater box, install inside windshield trim, order some ss screws from boltdepot, install remote tank master cylinder, install rain gutters, hook up interior light, replace light switch(new one was defective). 99% done. Biggest disappointment was lebaron bonney closing and missing some matching hidem.

Can run/drive today if I wanted.
