So I had Ben(73stallion) build me a cardboard template for a dash drop down. And I took down the street to a high school kid that is in metal shop and asked him to build me one.

Well three days pass and as I am driving by their house they flag me down and bang!!! there it is. The father of the son took it to his work and made it for me! I didn't even know he had the shop at his work to do it but it is beautiful.

When I offered to pay for it he refused and said don't worry about it. It looks like someone is going to get a bottle of his favorite whiskey soon!

I have the template and the final product. I would be more than happy to share it. Ben knows I am in no hurry to get it done.

I'd be happy to create 2d drawingds and 3d models for you.
Just sent me the info via email, bronko69er at hotmail dot com
Probably easiest to make a sketch with dimensions and scan it, or photoshop in the dimensions on one of the pics and send it to me.
