Looks great, Mike. What steering wheel is that- purchased or made by you?

Clint, that's the original steering wheel. It's large 16" diameter for manual steering. I've got a power assist, so I will be making a copy of this wheel but 1.5" smaller diameter. I will also be adding indicator lights and some return/ continuation material to finish the bottom edge other gauge panel.

Thanks, Mike. Wondered after posting if it might be original, but I have done almost nothing with Jags. Nice looking wheel.

I'm struggling with the tedious. So I decided to work on something substantial, the interior floor and driveline tunnel. Not my best work but not terribly concerned since they will be covered.

Still plugging away at the interior. Floor panels are done and secured, dash is its final location and close out templates made.
