I have a 1950 GMC 450 COE with a V-8 engine in it and I am looking for ideas on what to do about the engine cover(removable) and perhaps a console over that to tie into the dash board. The engine only rises about 10 inches into the cab (top of aircleaner and the gas pedal has plenty of room to the left of the engine.

If anyone has pictures they could forward me of ideas they have fabricated themselves or seen at shows I would appreciate it. I have been working almost every night on this truck for the past 4 months and now have the seat rails in and electrial hooked up so it at least it is ready to go on the road pretty soon. Then I will strip it down to the frame and paint everything bottom up.

I was thinking of welding and using fiberglass to mold a center console. I bought a set of 40/20/40 silverado seats out of alate model truck but the cab is too narrow to put the fold down seat between the other two seats so no longer important to have leg room for third person.

Thanks
