It was certainly a lot of work.
Here it is under construction at a fairly early stage getting checked for fit.
I had built my own radius bender, and used it to form the rounded edges of the dash assembly.
The inside corners needed a bunch of tiny pieces and a lot of careful welding.
Everything is .060 aluminum.
The outside corners were a bit easier.
I built a little steel/oak press buck to form the little caps.
Here it is on the bench getting the side access panels made and fitted.
Perhaps the crowning achievement on the dash is the glovebox.
The glovebox has a pretty big interior that allows for quite a bit of storage. Here is the interior piece.
The A/C vents are Ford factory units from a Superduty that I adapted to fit.
Here it is mostly done and sitting in the truck for another test fit.
The oval cutout is where the twin transfer case sticks come out.
The center console area will likely get filled with wiring and electronics.
