Looks awesome. If youd like a set of Srt-4 pedals I've got a set I was going to use in my Valiant, but decided not to.
 
Still ordering parts. New instrument cluster is on the way. And with the body close to paint I have had a change in color. ordered the new paint color today. Saw it over the weekend. 2014 Porsche 911 50th anniversary limited addition color it's called Geyser grey metallic.

nice looking cluster tim
 
Still not much time to work on my own project. But haven't given up hope. Been hanging around in the evenings doing what I can. Started to get the dash cut and fit for the new Dakota digital dash cluster.

LOL. You know my biggest problem is me. Just never can leave anything alone. What started as a simple project has grown in to a monster. It's just what I do. LOL.
 
Heck of a build you have going here! You'll like the SpeedHut gauges. They are very accurate btw. I tested the 1/4 mile ET on the guage and compared to the track ET a couple weeks ago. Read 11.00 on the gauge and 10.994 on the track ticket. That's darn accurate if you ask me!
 
a little more done tonight. got the opening cut out. started making the new close out panel for the bottom of the dash that was cut away to move the cluster up. and test fit the new cluster. looks pretty sweet.

looking good Tim! -Jon
Thanks Jon. Not really much time to put into my own build. But a little here and there. Hoping to have it ready for summer. But I have said that for the past 2 years. Have most everything to finish but time.
 
just about done destroying the dash. welded up the radio opening and some trim holes that won't be used.

Can into the shop today to start on the rear tail panel for the deck lid. But didn't have a wide enough piece of material so I guess that will wait for another day. So looking through boxes of parts I came across the emblems that go on the driver and passenger doors. They have the 270 DART script in them. Well that's not going to work. So I had bought a SRT4 emblem some time ago to use on the tail panel. It looked like if I just mill the old script off them the SRT4 badge will work fine in its place. So with not much effort we have a new door badge. Now I just need to order another SRT4 badge and figure out where the other door script got off to.
They will be sent out to be rechromed and the center ribbed area will be painted satin black.
