Thanks! Line-X of Rock Hill did the work. Good folks there.
Update time- slow going!!
Got the probably copyright infringed Bronco logo clutch and brake pedal pads glued in place. Gas pedal is in and fully installed too.
Now I'm onto the dash assembly and wiring harness. While the work isn't hard, it is very time consuming. The Centech harness is pretty much worthless with all the changes that need to be made to it. I've stripped about half of the wiring out of it and have to add circuits for the switches and gauges. It'll take a few more days for sure. Time is my biggest factor as the goal is the super cel- which is rapidly approaching!
Had a couple Do'h moments too. First one was that apparently I forgot to drill the holes for the relocated glove box hinges. This also meant that I didn't fill the old ones. Oops. What's a few extra holes?
Next was that apparently I did not have the defrost duct in place when I modified the dash. One of the heater controls and the rocker switches were right in the way. I was able to cut and modify the placement for the switches and had to switch a couple of the heater control cables around.
The speakers were next. I used some treated plywood as a spacer so that the cone in the middle didn't contact the dash. After getting it cut into shape, I used spray adhesive and an old t-shirt to wrap it and make it all pretty.
