Being a joiner by trade I must say that's a very clever piece of wood shaping, & nicely finished.
Being a TR enthusiast I must say what's the point? Certainly wouldn't have it in my car.[:)]

Bloody awful [xx(] But agree with the manufacturing comment.

But I don't like <font color="blue">any </font id="blue">wood (bar the odd steering wheel) in a TR7/8.

They are from the plastic and vinyl era.

However, I recognise there are people who do - but you shouldn't!! [:0] You should buy another car that it suits better - MK2 Jag, Dolomite?, etc etc.

I don't mean don't have a 7/8 - I mean get an additional car. Best excuse in the world for you.

Cheers,

Shaun.

I suppose in hot countries it will sasve the dash from cracking[8D].Yes it's well made but it's Horrible[xx(].Not for me thanks.

You just gotta have the right wheels(wheelwright?) for it-

or the correct varnish applied to the exterior-

....now,if ya got a furry dash-

It increases the fire risk while at the same time encourages the arsonist.


Never say die. At least not while you're still breathing.

I agree with Shauniedawn, woodwork is great but doesn't suit the 7/8

how many chippy's on the forum?.............
i'm one myself [:D]

It rides again.....

[zekow1]

I love wood in my dash .
As soon as I finish mine, I will post pics .
( Made By ROB one of our members "RJS")
But even thought it is very well made it is, in my opinion, atrocious.

[RJS]

I'm a computer jockey by trade, but I do quite a bit of woodworking (if that is what a chippy is).

I did do a dash kit for my car (and a couple of others on the forum), but it is nothing like that thing on eBay.

Here is the one in my car.

Looks like Zeke replied while I was typing.
