awww that was the plan, but for now I think im just going to put a set of drag lites on it, get rid of the ralleys and put new air shocks on the back so I can jack that back end up, the problem with putting the chrome back on is, I need to take the front windshield out to put a diff dash in the car and by doing that its going to cost me some money and time I dont quite have right now

Not for the instrument cluster or the dash pad but for the metal part of the dash you absolutely have to.
