Herman, I have just pm'd you re a RH dash. I am in Queensland. New member on here, I have just last week purchased a very rust free 1970 fastback, but tatty inside. I already have it stripped out, and (basically sound) floor being cleaned and painted. Engine and gearbox come out tomorrow for complete overhaul - But I need a dashboard !!
Hope you can add me to the list for one of your dashboards.
Cheers

Hi Guys,

Due to Health want to offer the Type 3 Dash making moulds and left over stock to someone wanting to carry on making them.

Please note that I never wanted to make "exact" replicas so the surface was "Leather" and not "pebble"

But should you want to make true "Pebble", this is possible with my moulds.

Please contact me by PM or e-mail for more info,

Will go as package deal, not parted out.
LHD wrap mould
LHD STD mould
RHD STD mould
Speaker drill drilling jig.
few of both LHD dash stock.
NO RHD stock

Thanks for your support, and glad I could do something for the Type 3 world family.

Herman

Herman,

I like to thank you personally. Being a T3 guy for a long time, I know the pain most guys feel when they can't find parts for the car they love. Taking the time to make and sell hard to find dashes is to me the very heart and soul of the hobby. Neich markets are what keep us going.

I hope someone picks up where you left off.

I bought one as a hedge against the inevitable cracking of my OEM dash. I was amazed that you went to all the efforts to make a great product with all the variations. That kind of commitment really keeps these cars going and loved. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hopes for your health, friend.

I bought one of your dash pads for my wife's car, and I just want to say Thank You for making these. Like Jason said, I hope someone picks up were you left off. Cool

Herman, hope you manage to first of all recover your health, and also find someone to take over your business that is so valuable to the Type 3 brigade.
I am fitting one of your dashes to my car at the moment, and thank you for just being there.
Cheers,
Giles

Strangely enough I finally installed my dash I purchased years ago this last week, I had to trim one small tab in the top corner and it popped right in. This is with just the 3 gauges installed
Thanks Herman

Did you lay it in top of your old dash pad or is it hollow?

You can fit it without backing as it is ridged and will hold its shape

Most as well as my self fitted it straight onto the metal pressing,

hope this helps
