Here are some pics of the 1958 Ford dash in my ranger and the sheetmetal door panels to go with it. Work done by Little Shop.

That is super clean.Are you using the 58 sensors and gauges?

yeah that is the plan. the speedometer shouldn't be a problem since older ranger used cable driven speedos, i can just replace the sensor with one from the older trucks. the rest of the gauges i will use whatever sensor will work.

my buddy is a wiring genius who will be rewiring the truck, so i am relying on him and his expertise more than anything.

That looks sick. I love the doors.

I have a dash out of an old 280Z in my truck. Not as old as some around but its a cool lookin dash.The part closest to the window is sheetmetal so I just have to make a filler panel to match the shape of my windshield.

The first thing that came to mind when I saw this topic was Gump's dash.
