Getty Dash, leather covered, gauge face frame painted color of car, gauge faces painted to match upholstery

I don't know if this counts as a 911 dash but it is different.

Not to be a smart-ass or anything, but a 911 dash usually looks like a 911 dash (note the 5 gauges instead of 3), not a recovered 914 dash ...

Andy

I guess thats why I said I don't know if this doesn't count as one. Guess I should have just said it isn't...

Leather covered by Morph, V8 calibrated gauges

Can you give an idea of how you mounted your igni key switch , I've got a 911 column and ig switch to setup in my 73. Your's looks good. Please....

Paul,

Wow, now that is the way to install a 911 dash ... not just a dash cover.

The rest of your teener is just as meticulous ... FABULOUS!

Eddie

Thanks Andy , I thought I had seen that before , memory bank rusty, probably need a reboot.

Looks great , how does it effect leg room under the dash knee pad ?? Is the 911 dash unit lower in this area ??

Jack / Jaxdream

Does not look any lower then the 914 dash and lower dashpad.

"Looks great , how does it effect leg room under the dash knee pad ?? Is the 911 dash unit lower in this area ??"

No problem with leg room, doesn't seem any lower but I have never measured it

I was looking at the ends by the door panels, appered to be lower on the door than 914 , maybe camera angle , just appered to be lower and I see you've not got any speaker panels installed. Thanks for the reply,and I just like the look of the lower dash as it contrasts with the upper , angled like it is.

gone but not forgotten....

Very nice boys! Lets keep em coming!

Are you planning on doing the 911 style dash ?

Here's mine.

This is not a Getty dash, but not a total 911 transplant either. It's a '70 car, first converted to a '72 dash, then with a 911 instrument panel cut from a '78 SC and trimmed to be similar to the 914 panel mounted with the stock four screws. The top pad is a blend of an old 914 pad with the area above the panel cut out and that area from a 911 grafted in, then the gaps filled with foam-in-place material, the result sanded smooth, and finally upholstered in vinyl by Palo Alto Upholstery. I also replaced the steering column with one from a SC, and converted to the 911-type ignition switch and steering column lock using the front dash section and dash trim plates from a wrecked 914/6.

I need to wash & clean up the car before I take pics of the Getty dash.

Jim, I may, but it's a stretch. I have it, I'm just not sure if I like that many gauges.

five gauges may seem like a lot, but information should never be in shortage.

This dash was pulled from a wrecked `70 911. I will try to post the dash top finished photos (black synthetic suede w/double red stitch) in a few weeks.

Mark, that looks really good, especially with the Hockey Puck horn button. I always like to see the things I sell on peoples cars.

T.C.

True, but I also plan on running a center divide, into which I can put the additional gauges.

Thanks T.C., it's come out pretty good. Eventually I will have the early green 911 gauges made for it, but that's a bit in the future. I have a set of 5 from a 68 912, but it seems a shame to use them when I can have a set made from 914 gauges, and not ruin their originality. I really like the hockey puck wheel & button. I use the Momo for AX or track, but for everyday I like to see my gauges.

That is F'in wonderful! Makes me want to get my 914 a little (OK, a LOT) nicer...

And here's mine:_
