Harrogate, northyorkshire

got a bit more done on the dash.........
i decided to put five small clocks in, and i made a pod to mount them in, angled towards the driver ( me*happy* )
its taken me ages to get it all shaped up and mounted, but its all done now. got it all skimmed up tonight.





ive put a slight angle on the two outside main clocks too, just to give it some shape, i didn't want it all to look flat.

I bet my first wank came quicker than your first mini turbo


These new modern turbos with their quick spool up time, would make the competition harder.

Have you thought about taking a mould of it before you put it in? Im sure you'd sell a few!

thats the plan!
i just want to get it all painted and sort any bits out.

ive now have my front spoiler in production, and will have some ready very soon.
the first one we had made went on my brothers mini. its a little bit bigger than the one on mine, and it mounts onto the front of the front panel.









we are selling them for £55 plus £10 p&p

they come in black gelcoat, and they dont need to be painted, unless you wanted to.

Great feature on both cars, some really good pics-this one is a stunning looking car-personally the old dash didnt appeal to me that much but this new one already looks fantastic, bit odd but I have a bit of a thing about dash's-what are you going to finish it in?

thanks

i didnt mine the dash, but i wanted to change it from standard, and thats what i did. i liked it from the drivers seat, but not when you looked into the car, plus everything was miles away from the drivers seat.
because i'm using the car i keep having to put the dash in to drive, funny but it feels different, but its good to drive it because ive move a few things around with the switches, so i can get it just right.

got my dash primed, very pleased how it looks.
i'm going to paint it in contrasting colours, metallic black, polaris silver (same as the stripes) and green. think i'll have the main part in black, the dash top silver and clock panel in green.

the only place i know of is wood&picket for the steering boss, but it's about £100!!
what i did was buy an early colomn and change it all over for the later one ( indicaters and stuff )
but have a look here, because i think you can get a boss for a MGF rover, its the same colomn and switches.

Wp seem to only saling the bigger pcd moutney steering boss, thanks for the link I've mailed the guy, I don't want to do without the mini rolled bearings colomn.

Even is big wheels isn't my styling (sensible to center binacle and ten's wheels). Your job is from a top craftman indeed nice
