So last nite I finally got off my ass and completed this. It began out of necessity. I needed a few panels to complete the console that I added to Blackie. Having some experience with aluminum, the materials on hand and given mostly to being a CSOB I decided to burl some pieces for this. I previously posted this work here.... http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=135875 and here... http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...rling++aluminum , if you give a shit. Satisfied with the outcome I decided to do the dash face likewise. Is there an emoticon for blowing your brains out? Enough! Check it out. Yes, I know the dash is cracked, the vent is dirty, the heater control knobs are filthy and I forgot to polish the lock for the glove box.

Awesome job dude! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)
That would look cool on a Amco console, Is it hard, or just boring to make (swirls) |

Dang, that's nice work. Too much bright stuff for my taste, though; I prefer the dashboard to be dark colored.
Hey, have you given a thought to a translucent paint over that surface? Some guys named Faberge did pretty well with that look about a hundred years ago... (Seriously, it could look cool if done well!) --DD |
