    Man I appreciate it! This may have been more expensive , but you won't be taking it out again. The factory ones sure are junk. Couldn't imagine having to do it constantly.......

    I had bought the dash on ebay back in January, roughly 1600. The company is Dashboard Design Corp, out of Florida. Miami area. Now they are around 2000 but come with more options.

    That looks good Big_D409. Do you have any contact info for that company? My friend just totally restored two Sterling dump trucks to near perfection, except for the dash's. I'll show him your work. Nice job!

    That was one ambitious project. Just seeing all the dash components hanging out is enough to make me not want to tackle it.
    But you sure made it look good with the new dash.

    @Star4900 the person I've been talking to lately at the company is Arianna. Now I'm looking at the door panels in fiberglass and trying to see what else they will make. The company is Dashboard Cover Designer Corp.

    Thanks deezl and tug! It definitely brings the interior to life. Finally glad to not be dealing with so many squeaks and rattles. My old dash was doing alright until I started going to Michigan and Chicago area. Mainly Michigan... as those roads just beat up the slowly failing dash.
    One day I'll have everything done on this truck.
