Cool... Carbon Fibre aux gauge panels...

I think they will cost just as much as a good 360 though...
But I bet he can do GF aswell...

I'm hoping not.. I do have some cheap sources of CF.... but I'm gonna do GRP, cos I'll have to spray mine. The mould should let me do both though, need to learn how to crawl before running or walking!

you aint gonna believe this guys , my cousins husband came up from Oxford weekend before last

, havent seen him for a couple of years, anyway he was looking over the redline and said , " I used to have one of these it was a 360 though, it had an econometer lecky windows and mirrors and WHERE YOUR CASSETTE THINGY IS I HAD A THING WITH EXTRA GAUGES AND SWITCHES

" . So I asked him what had happened to the car and he said " I had to scrap it

" so I asked (with a tear in my eye ) have you got any bits left like electric windows or mirrors , (not daring to mention that part which is as rare as the holy grail ) and amongst other things he said off handidly "I'VE STILL GOT THAT PANEL SOMEWHERE BUT IT AINT MUCH COP AS I USED THE DIALS IN ANOTHER CAR " after I had bitten his hand off It took him a full ten minutes to prize me off of him

( we are very close ) as I begged him to look for it and to cut a long story short

I had a phone call last night to say he had found it

Dude, good effort

I hadn't noticed it, but I've been trying to steer well clear of the bay! Might not worry about spraying it with all these appearing

Oh of course...I remember that now
I have a large collection of Volvo / VDO 52mm gauges, so let me know if you're looking for anything like that. I also have the info on the VDO part numbers / sources for senders for oil temp and pressure.
cheers
