Not sure what kind of help you're looking for... I'd start with a google image search to see what the real thing looks like, and just recreate what you see.

I already had a pic from when i built one. I'll admit this is a tough one to do well. I don't have any pics of mine or recall doing the dash. I'd recommend some careful detailing with a brush or a fine point silver Sharpie.

You can get the exact idea by looking at the real thing, not at what others have done (possibly incorrectly!)

thanks for ppls comments i have sorted the dash out

what do you all think ???

Looks great, how'd you do it?

That "chrome" trim strip across the top of the dash shouldn't be there. The lower chrome strip (that wraps around the steering column) is correct, but the upper one doesn't exist. Also, the gauge faces should be a matte silver or light gray.

I probly would have alcladed the entire thing and then filled the low black areas with thinned down paint but that's because I dont have the patience to try to paint all those thin silver lines. But it does look really good.
