Custom Ford Tow Truck for Broadway Towing in Freeport:

The truck was painted black, sanded and all previous lettering/graphics were removed prior to my starting on it:

Taped up and almost ready to start airbrushing/painting:

Starting the flames:

Added a burning skull:

Next, I added a thin airbrushed outline of kobalt blue mixed with white:

The side stripes. I'm not sold on the color just yet:

Custom Dash for 1991 Chevy G-20 Shop Project Van:

Laying the foundation for the fiberglass covering.
I added a triple DIN dash face for the DVD/Navigation, the stereo and the graphic equalizer/sound manager. There's also a mounting area for the 7" video screen on the passenger side. I also added 4X6" speaker mounts in the stock location, but angled toward the passengers for better sound quality. Other changes are the switches added to the radio plate and the headlight switch changed to a bypass switch. Panels were added at the bottom of the dash to replace the cheap plastic inserts that were down there.

Gluing the felt fabric on that will be the first fiberglass layer
This is much easier on a flatter surface. I still have to smooth most of it out before adding the fiberglass resin. I bought red only because they had it and it was on top of the pile of fabric. The radio section will be getting a real wood overlay, made from cherry. Originally, the dash was going to get covered in vinyl, but the vinyl guy at the shop left for personal reasons, so it will now be getting painted. I'm not sure if I will paint it with the vinyl color or to match the outside of the van.

Applying the fiberglass resin. This was done is sections, to avoid the cloth being stretched too far by the wet resin, which can get quite heavy.

Test fit of the cluster cover. Some trimming is needed.

These are the new A/C and heat vents.
I have to extend the ducts behind the red fabric and make a few flat areas to mount these into. These are from an RV supply company. I bought 8. I plan to put 2 into each end of the dash (where there was 1 rectangular vent), and 4 in the center extension, 2 on each side.
