If didnt do this when the dash was cut out and would have put the smooth dash in first, it would have been a nightmare to get it all put in.( Thanks rick mellon for that idea )
If you look way down there you can see how i ran the A/C lines and the heater lines just hidden under the A/C lines ( for a clean look with easy maintenance if need be,, the dryier is tucked up under the fender
Found some pre-molded heater lines so I can run them where It needed to be.
put in a more compact size hood latch and relocated

Nice work so far, very inspiring.
In the last pic showing that hood latch spring, does anyone know where to source one? Mine is missing and I have not been able to find one.
