Dashboard Swap

Not a big job I suppose for you guys, but definitely an awkward sod, anyhooo old un off & a replacement fitted that I have had lying around for a few years.

It came off a saloon that was being stripped for banger racing, I do wonder that if the dash was in this superb condition what the rest may have been like..

 

 

Old un, a quite dark red almost maroon colour, split around the speaker grill (of course)

May as well strip the instruments housing off & clean everything, as I do.

Much lighter red than the old original, but much closer to the carpet colour.

 Don't you just love those 70 / 80's interior colours.

 

 after this period most cars went dark or grey inside and didn't have the character of this era.

 

 I do like to see Mantas / Cavaliers with unusual interior colours, makes a change from Chicago Grey
