Gearstick Gauge Panel

[Chris_C]

Alright guys, right, I've finally got round to doing these. Mould is coming up nicely, so I'm getting to the stage that I reckon I can take some orders, and once thats sorted, some dosh so I can go and buy the materials.

I reckon (and will prolly get moaned at) that these should be a limited run, so I'm thinking 5 will be made, including mine. I'm not looking to make money (else I'll have Carl chasing me for rent of panel ) but I reckon £30 per panel should cover the materials, including mould making. Postage extra, or I'll bring them to a meet of something.

Anyone whos keen, sign up below, First come, first served type thing, I'll go by postings in this thread only.

Cheers

And me Glad to hear its coming on, sure there will be people after this!

[Carl]

That's £30 per panel plus £5 for the right to use a replica of my original I reckon

Steve - just a thought - you might want to consider getting one of Chris's replicas as it'd be in much better condition. Totally up to you, I'm easy either way!

[SteveP]

Hmm not sure really, not too bothered - the original one will be fine, but if the replicas are good...

I wil not be needing one anymore as the calibra came with a very nice auxillary gauge panel lol

Looks abit rice for a factory option Ah.. then again it is a Vauxhall Woah shiny gearknob and wheel, how many miles has that thing done?!

[redline]

120,000 and still going strong , the gear lever and wheel are being replaced this week

[Chris_C]

Nobody intrested then??? Steve, any advance on the above response? Looks like I'll keep uber exclusivity!

I'm dead tempted. Just need to be 100% that it'd fit a vario, as the gear stick surround dips down there for the warning buzzer light. I'd not be able to fit it to the GLT, as it's mess up my mStation control, and there is nowhere else to mount it as neatly and well. Plus, if I ever get my arse in gear, there is one in a car with gauges I could get!

LOL, nicely done! One day, progress is being made, as the Variomatic is mobile. Now to shift the others.

they are talking about the panel in front of the gear lever with the two dials

[Chris_C]

Cheers for that Mick.

Gulbrandsen_Racing, no pictures of the final copies yet, as the mould are just being finished. Basiccally, if you wanted one, I'd need the money up front, so I don't end up with loads of panels that people have said they want, and I've paid for. I am making one for myself, and I think Pete possibly, so those could be photo'd if you wanted to see one first. I am only making five though, so if another couple of definates signed up

Basically, the copies will be fibreglass, not plasic, but will look the same, probably need spraying too I'd imagine.
