Well I keep getting emails and phone calls on the C6-57 truck so I thought I would keep you guys posted as to the details and the progress for the next 11 days. So here is the gauge cluster, the center console with some stainless. I hope to get the shifter console installed tommorrow. I just sent the file to water jet the stainless. Plus the Door stiker bolts we made up.

Wait till you see the brake, clutch and gas pedals all done. Here is concept sketch from Solidworks. I'm waiting on the self lubricated Delrin rollers to mount the stainless sleeves to make the rollers for the gas pedal.

The gauge cluster is not the one we had trouble with, It is a gauge cluster we had Redline gauge works make for us a while back.

Here are two pics of the gas pedal we had RFR fabrication machine for us after Eric and I worked on the design togther in Solidworks.

Brent I was wondering what happened to you, I will be in Pleasanton with John's(Novanutcase) and Brian's(Brian Mc) novas in the "Chassisworks" Booth. It should be a fun weekend up there.

I've had the pleasure of seeing this truck in person....

All I can say is "Hold onto your hat!"
