What's your palns for a/c?
Are you planning to use the stock burb dash wiring or custom?
Gauges?
Dash looks great, I'm picking up a 78 cc project and your dash has really got my mind working on overload.
Keep the pics coming.

Re: gmc sierra 3500 dually build
You gonna swap the cummins in the Chevy?

I'm also wondering what the "TTD" after the 6.5L stands for?

Re: gmc sierra 3500 dually build
KC712- Love the LTD- My dad had a 72 LTD Vert with the 429/C6. It was blue with a white top. He sold it when I was 15 cuz he said he loved me, and the 429 was too much for a 16 yo. Never have found another like it.

The trucks going to be sweet with that Cummins BTW.

Love the dash...

I can't decide between that style or an 03-06... This one seems like much less work. And cheaper
