Beautiful work Joe! That is so impressive! I like the addition of the Coke in the holder.

Awesome Joe - the contrast of that Red is excellent!

Thanks Carlos, Mark and Stewart.
Carlos: Yes sir....there was no shortage of red on these interiors alright.
Stewart: It took me a minute to figure out how I was gonna do the contrasts in red on the seats but once I figured it out and saw how it turned out I felt fairly good about it.
Mark: I've found that extras like that give a little individuality and character to a build.

Ok folks. I've got the foot pedals finished up. I used a couple of strips of solder formed and flattened on both ends so I could adhere one end to the inside of the firewall and the pedal to the other end. I've got the dash (which I painted a two tone color of maroon and red) test fitted into place and will be by next area of emphasis.
Anyways, foot pedal wise..we go from this:
to this:
More progress coming soon...………….

Much better on those pedals! They are a big upgrade!

Thanks Carlos and Tom! I'm pretty nervous about getting started with the dash.

Great job building, installing and painting new pedals, Joe! Your work looks phenomenal! Good luck with the dashboard elements. What will happen there?
Make more models!

You may be nervous, but in the end, your work on those dashboards is always top notch...mustang1989 wrote:Thanks Carlos and Tom! I'm pretty nervous about getting started with the dash.

Normally I don't get as worried about it but I drive one of these kinds of trucks and I've got this dash in front of me every day so I know exactly what the details are like and will want to try to get as close as possible to replicating it.
