Hello.
Basically I have 3 old 86 dashes, which have rather large cracks and other marks in them.
They could be possibly re-lined, but I don't need them, and nobody wants them in there current state.
So what I'm offering, is to turn them into race only dashs. By this I mean stripping them of their outer padding leaving just the skeleton.

Here is the one I've done for my track car.

Note: Both ends have been cut to fit a full cage. These others will be left whole.

So here is the EOI bit. I'm not going to waste my time if nobody wants them, but I can't just throw them away either.
So what I'm offering, is to strip them and paint them Mat black if you like. Or just leave them stripped and sanded as in the pic, kind of looks carbon fiberish.
Why would you want one of these? The main reason would be the weight saving, roughly half the original. You wont have to worry about mounting points, as you would if you were making a custom dash, so everything original will go back in. And they look pretty neat too.

So the cost each would be;
$40 as they are
$70 stripped
$100 stripped and painted
Willing to post at buyers expense.

I can get more pics on request too.
Cheers,
Dom

Other way around Minihorse. The centre console should fit over the forearm nicely, while the dash will be good for reach.
But only pussies need shields :P
