Go listen to some Iron Maiden and clear your head... :whistle:

Looking good. Can't wait to see the gauge decal. Btw, I would just leave it on the paper. Cut it out and glue it in. If you do apply it as a decal, be gentle. His decals are thin and confirm well but are somewhat delicate.

Thanks again. The instrument cluster on this one was a rhomboidian shape, not the arc shape. I was able to wet it and apply, though. Given what will be seen when the dash is installed, it will be fine. I like it. Where did you get these? I am now looking for the FORD lettering for the tailgate. No confidence that the cutter will do them satisfactorily.
