        I have been toying with the idea of adding more gauges next to the
center column on the passenger's side.  I have aluminum sheet metal that
would look good but then I found some copper sheets.  I think that I will
use the copper for the front portion and the aluminum for the sides and back.
        Basically it will be an additional attachment to the center console.

        Thoughts... comments..

        The only thing that I can think of is that the passenger may wack
their legs on it.
        I don't like to spend the money on items that I can create.
