Almost done

[Rootbeer Roadster]

I set the ride height and did a rough alignment today before driving around the block. I'm not done yet, but close enough to share pictures. What do you think?

I Like it! I especially like the Dash and Console.

[AZPete]

I like it a lot, especially the dash extension and cup holders. Nicely designed and built.

I love the leather color! The paint is sweet too. Would look cool with shiney pipes and louvers.

Very nice craftsmanship.

I never saw a brown one before. Can't believe how good it looks. It's very elegant looking! Way to go!.

[LuckyWinner]

Your dash looks frickin great man!!! One of the best I've seen.

[Movieman]

I hate brown but love that color!
NICE choice!

RR: Do you mind, explaining how you supported the dash console extension? Pics would be good. I plan on shamelessly copying your design with credits, of course. Thanks, WEK

[Bob Russel]

Love the dash, especially your console. Himm, you have given me a good idea, but honestly I am trying my hardest right now not to let scope creep get in the way of my project. But that console is easy to justify... Any build photo's or spec's would be nice.

Wow! Outstanding!

Absolutely the most eye catching roadster I have ever seen. You made the perfect choice on the paint and exhaust. Very well done.

Is that a House of Colors Paint?

I fabricated an underdash panel for some switches and my courtesy lights. I attached the dash extensin to it with 2 bolts. The extension itself is made from .040 aluminum cut to shape for the front with the same aluminum on the sides. I used a roller to shape the sides and attached them with small brackets.

[Tpa65cpe]

It's PPG paint. I believe Acura has a very similar color. Thanks for all the comments.
