Randy Keller at Prestige in Santa Ana Ca is really terrific on TR dashes and is a craftsman with custom wood.

Steve, when you post in all capital letters, it is the equivalent of <span style="font-size: 20pt"><span style="font-weight: bold">SCREAMING!!</span></span> :devilgrin: :cheers:

I made my own out of black walnut. I purchased a piece from a local lumberyard and had it milled to 3/8". I used the original dash as a template. By doing it yourself you can reposition guages. I added an oil pressure guage and an ammeter. One mistake I made was to have the board milled on the spot. Next time,I will let the wood dry for about 6 months before milling as it has a small (noticable only to me) curve in it.
