While the dash support looks good its incomplete. You need two arms that extend forward from the rear uprights so the grill support rods will bolt to them also and not just the plastic dash sides.

The build looks great so far I see you welded the deck half's on I normally bolt them on the are the first thing to get damaged. or at least that was my thought but mine have been on for two years and I have not had to replace them.
