That's awesome.

Modified the dash to make the Yukon gauges look like individual steam type gauges….oh, and added a little Frankenstein in the mix

Your project looks GREAT !! Nice detail…….

What was your inspiration for your build ?
I notice, in the background of your Halloween photo, … that's a race track …..

 

[mikez71]

Man, you've been a busy bee!

I'm usually against new interiors in an older vehicle, but yours looks beautiful.

It looks comfy to drive too...

Very nice!

Here’s a Yukon intake you haven’t seen before

I used a 50’s Cadillac “Batwing” style air cleaner and created a plenum below it to duct in the intake elbow. It’s sort of a statement piece for the engine compartment, and of course it had to get a laser cut stainless steel “Radillac” emblem.

This thing is sick! Excellent job on the dash. As a big Frankenstein fan, i fully approve of the gauges!

Oh, and it got a Fulton visor, as I think anything of this vintage needs one.

When you are about finished with your ‘work of art’, I suggest you get either a drawing or a painting of it from a friend of mine !!

Awesome build!

No airbags, I removed them all. I wish I could eliminate the airbag messages from the display, but alas….
