Suitable switchgear for project

[V8 Vum]

Hi Guys,

Please don't hate me..... I have always loved the innovative look of TVRs both inside and out...but could never quite justify an outright buy.

Not in the same league I know, but at least I can pay as I go....I am building an Ultima, but frankly hate the standard interior.

...and then I thought...

..can I graft at least some of the beautiful switchgear etc into my dash? The ally heater panel maybe, I also remember seeing a circular switch panel from one of the tvrs I saw, which was real eye-candy!

...Have looked around, but cannot find any sources...Then I remembered your forum.

...any suggestions? Ideas....sourcing ??? New or used?

Can you help?

cheers

In the classifieds on here and on Ebay there are usually whole damaged cars being broken, as you don't want any of the panels this could be the perfect place to start....

Listen!

After 57 tough years bringing up my kids with not a bean to myself....
And now having managed to bye-bye to them as they are out into the real world to forge a life of their own...


And having managed to re-educate my wife in the art of allowing me a little time to 'spin spanners' occasionally....

I believe I have earned the right to build something that will really the pants off me!

...so I recon when all done, I will have the best coffin around!

PS: Any switchgear to avoid? i.e. problematic?

What about the full heater control panel? Would it be relatively easy to patch into my std set-up?

A few of these switches like the heater/air con and wipers possibly work through some type of control module so you may need these as well.
