HELLOW OUT THERE: I'M DOING SOME RESTORATION ON MY 73 GT6 & WOULD LIKE TO EITHER GET A NEW WOOD DASH OR HAVE THE OLD ONE REDONE. ANYONE HAVE ANY CONTACTS. THANKS STEVE.

Randy Keller at Prestige in Santa Ana Ca is really terrific on TR dashes and is a craftsman with custom wood.
 
Can the GT be redone as easily as the big 6's??

So are mine...

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:
 
Steve-Really not that hard to redo them your self
 
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.
 
Never really understood the cap lock issue....DO YOU READ IT LOUDER. Just sayin. BTW good luck with the dash Steve.
 
I think we scared him away.
Don't be shy Steve.
My first post were like that too.
Unfortune...for the boys here .....
I STAYED
