I picked up another second-hand dash the other day (thanks Paul!).
My original dash I had recovered back in 1999 but I was never happy with the result. The re-skin took out the detail lines around the instrument binnacles, and the glovebox lid doesn’t close properly. The glovebox lid could probably be improved with a bit of heat and pressure, but I’ll always be looking at the shape around the instruments and thinking it’s not quite right…
This original dash will be a better outcome I think – it has been repaired in a couple of spots, but is in very very nice condition.
The centre console makes me chuckle – I optimistically put it all back together more than ten years ago ready to go back in the car…
