Hey hotrod ford....

That looks great...
I have one of those panels for my '68 CS, but haven't gotten it installed yet.
I like the Ford emblem on your speedo...
Did it come like that or did you put it on there?

naw, it came on my 05 f150 when i bought it. i peeled it off and put it on my garage locker for about a year and a 1/2. it was my 6 year old girl's idea to put it on the panel.

Very nice indeed! :thup:

Hopefully, this will be one of my upgrades as well.

If I can ever just find my elusive F-600 in the boneyards! :lol:
