Yeah I see what you mean Josh,

unfortunatly ive allready covered it in gelcoat ready for glassing tomorrow. There wont be much glass going on the side and bottom which are the flat sides so hopefully it will come off ok.

We'l see...

Howdy chaps,

Made abit of progress with the dash mould today.

Waxed and PVA'd the foam plug.


Gel coated it.


My poor attempt at fibreglassing it.


To my suprise it actually came out really smooth!


So tomorrow I will be seeing if the mould actually works!

Pulled the final moulds out today, came out alot better than I thought they would.

For some reason the gelcoat went abit gay and bubbled in places.

Hi guys,

Just thought i'd show you the dash now its all together. I havnt had time to cover it in leather so sprayed it black for my presentation day.

It needed cutting at the top and sides, to fit over the dash rails properly.





Cheers,

Ben.
