This is a pain in the butt with my dialup kicking me off every 15 seconds.
there is a rust hole in the front panel behind the parking brake handle.
The econoline lid is nice and fits the 2nd gen doghouse. the lid that came on it is kinda beat up.

xjamesx as you know a 2nd gen doghouse is easier than major mods to a first gen doghouse for a V8. And should save some coin I hope.

yeah, tom, mine was a second gen. doghouse but i kept the front of the 1st gen. D/H because my radiator and tunnel worked great to keep it cool in the summer and i made the whole D/H longer than stock so i have extra room for maintenance and airflow....
