    The original was built for racing and the interior was slapped together quick for a singular purpose. The interior that I want in our car is more of a production feel - something, while not true to the original, has a 60's feel as if the car went to a production line - where attention to detail and higher comfort levels are taken into consideration.

    I get it might not be what the purists want......but it's not their car :-)

    Like it!
    One thing I wished I would have done was angle the ends of the dash like the originals. My thinking is kind of like yours make it more productionlike but still period "correct".

    Jonas,

    Like those gauges a lot. The veneer will look pretty sharp in the coupe. Will have to keep us updated with pic's !
