I was going to say. Your imagination is the limit. Call Mike Livorsi he can do anything you can think of to it plus something you havent thought of as well. Like the commercial says.

WHAT'S IN YOUR WALLET??:whistle:

Last winter my project was taking my 88 fountain dash and throwing it really hard into the trash and making a new custom dash. The gauges are livorsi race style with white face and rings "No Bezels" I custom cut the dash out of 3/16 billet aluminum, and had it hydro dipped carbon fiber. All the trim,drive,and toggle switches were replace and relocated and Garmin GPS installed. The drive and Tab switches were replaced with stainless illuminated buttons. the rest of acc switches moved to a custom side panel. I bought EMI Elite controls, and imco steering to finish it off. All the wiring was removed and redone with relays and power panels for lower amp usage. I think it turned out pretty awesome for a concrete worker and friend doing all the work. We also installed an insane stereo system...Attachment 488957

Here's a before and after of my dash. I really wanted to put the GPS right in front of me but with my big old school engines I'm a real gauge freak. I only really need the GPS a few trips a year when we go to Florida so it just wasn't worth it to me.

Thanks I'm wanting to add a little more on the deck but just not quite sure how much to do yet. I don't want to over do it.
