Started out with my 2006 F150 Crew Cab short bed, with a 9" lift and some goodies inside. Well eventually I got bored from a lack of power and wanted a fresh start.



and moved on to this

Were those .38 specials you found...lol

Wonder what they were doing there...

If I was going to the work to put that dash in, I'd cut out the factory gauges and install some Isspro or Autometer gauges in the factory location. Just b/c it would be different and more accurate. Even so, cool idea, I know I like the dash in my Dad's '10 6.4

Picture of my toolboxes if anyone cares



And some of the truck...











No way in hell stock heater core will even come close to fitting, already bought new one, waiting to pick it up.

Picked up all my door skins, all window switches. Waiting on new turbo parts.

Snow finally melted and I finally started up work again (pools). I'm currently trying to run through all the wiring, and whats got me stuck is, I can't make any of the HVAC stuff work with the 2000's heater core, or the mechanical gauges and shift lever. I'm thinking I can retro fit the controls for the core, use the old column for now, and just make my own gauges and overlay them on the 08-10 face plate. Thoughts or suggestions?
