Strap and bracket are easy ones, bins are probably too big, especially as I need none of the stuff already suggested.

Ok, I've convinced myself it's doable. Will be making 998 and 1275 rad bracket, and the gear stick 'cup'. As and when someone lends me stuff to copy. Handles will be a new year project. I have a plan. I had thought about the door handles quite some time ago. I was going to make a latex mould, and cast the handles with resin and chopped strand carbon fibre. But I think I was day dreaming at the time On 26th Oct, 2004 TurboDave16v said:
Is it A-Series only? I think it should be... So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'... On 26th Oct, 2004 Tom Fenton said:
Yep I agree with TD........ |

I can see that maybe my idea of making stuff for myself first may go astray, as I like this idea. Need one to copy now!

I got distracted today and ended up making a mould for a throttle pedal. Will be cannibalising an original to make it, but should save some weight. This is FORD country, on a quiet day you can hear Vauxhalls rusting. |

Erm, totally random, and just cos I am looking for one for the everyday car, but have you thought about/done a tax disc holder? |

True, but I know quite a lot of people use or want to use period tax discs then.
