Anyone got an old Pre-cat dash?

[AntonyJ]

Did place a wanted ad in the classifieds,but it's been bumped onto page 2 already!

Anybody have a knackered old dash? Obviously need a pre-cat one.

Don't want anything with it(buttons,dials) just the main bit.

Well, was after one for keeps Mike, my veneer is falling to bits, but no-way do I want to take the dash out now.

I was either thinking of having a go at veneering one myself, or just paint it body colour(so I can see how it looks)

Hi Ant, I have a couple if you'd like one. Just sent one to someone last week funnily enough.

Would be good mate, does it still have the clips on the rear to retain the gauges?

PM if you like.

[LordGrover]

Nope. I have one god awful teak affair and my old ryvita 'carbon fibre effect' dash - take your pick - both ugly as. Suitable for stripping and reveneering or using as templates only IMO. Both bare, no clips or 'bent bits of metal' as I like to call them. PM me your address and I'll pop one on a carrier for you.
If you'd like something more fancy, let me know and I'll see what I can do. Nod's as good as a wink and all that ...

I have mate, not seen it yet as I aint there!
But thanks

[LordGrover]

Don't thank me yet - you aint seen it.

[AntonyJ]

Cheers Grover, seperated them today, did you fit that overlay?

At least I have a bare precat dash now , cheers mate.!

Hi Antony

Does the dash have the gauge brackets,if not I found that top hat din-rail is the perfect size for the Z brackets if you need to make some, welded mine in place did not like the glue option.

Did you see dnb's new dash? I couldn't quite make out what he was planning from the dwgs but it's looking good in situ now.

THREAD REVIVAL !!

Wouldn't you know it, I've got the Griff back on the road at last, and this morning as I wiped some dirt off the clocks there was a plink as the veneer cracked and a lump pinged out.

There is absolutely no effing way I am taking the effing Griff off the effing road for 2-3 weeks right effing now, while I get it effing sorted out

So I'm hoping one of you kind gentlemen has a precat dash I can send off along with a bit of veneer and allow me to drive the Griff instead of just repairing it this year.

Can anyone help?
I can get a photograph of the layout of my dash if it will help.

I think I may have one or two junkers in the garage - I'll check when I get home.

[Barreti]

Thanks LG.
I didn't expect you to have another one, where are you stealing them from

[LordGrover]

Yep. Just the one bare MS one left, suitable for veneering or other covering. PM me your address and I'll get it to you in a few days.
