Rear view of the completed dashboard. Note that I mounted as many things as possible to the dashboard. The stereo, , AIM unit , 2 crossovers, amplifier, twitters, Sirius XM unit and antenna , and traction control unit . all the connections to the mid range speakers and subwoofer, outside...

The idea of the tan leather inserts was so that the dashboard will flow well with the center console , so wrapped the center console with tan leather that matches the seats . I tried wrap , but it was too fragile for center console use , so decided leather was the best option. First try did not...

Miguel wanted a fancy horn system, so in addition to a compressed air horn, designed a sound board , sounds can be downloaded easily, and we have 3 horn buttons, the red one is the air horn. super loud. Can't wait to get besides someone texting and driving or cutting me off:) I added 2 super...

Then wrap this baby in beautiful leather. Doing it without stitching with a single hide was super hard, and in some areas you can see where it was impossible to stretch any further and I had to make cuts, then repair it with a leather repair kit. I still have to fine touch some areas , but I am...

had to made a few changes to the dashboard to improve fitment and clear gaps with the body, it needed a dimple to allow the bright light lever to slide all the way forward, (I figure it was easier than move the steering column again, which I did several times already :) ) I had to add fiberglass...

Thanks Dave, that would have been a lot easier, on the bright side, the aluminum is much stronger on the edges and it is a tight fit on the fiberglass .

Miguel made a nice case for the traction control unit , but the 3D printed plastic does not have a nice finish, so I made a black anodized aluminum plate cover, turned out very nice , I have a tiny CNC machine, unfortunately not quite strong enough to cut aluminum , so all done by hand. I will...

Well, I don't post as often as I want to, I just feel that getting a significant step done is the time, unfortunately days and weeks go by fast, it took me 2 months to finish the dashboard, that is a bit disheartening, but that is how this project goes . Of course using leather over soft touch...

Wow!!! That is an incredible amount of love and time into the project . thanks for the updates David.

Eric: I finally got a set from the factory, had to wait for a couple of years though. Have not installed it yet

A tranny and some wires are you are ready to go . I would add more insulation and carpeting if you can. even for a track car. will make a big difference in comfort. Just FYI. Good luck with the finish. I really like the white cage.

Kurt, Glad to see you back on the SLC, maybe I will pay your nice paint booth a visit :)

If you are going to modify the front to accommodate full headlight assemblies , may I suggest 2014-17 Jaguar F type headlight assemblies . You can see my build thread for full details . It does involve quite a bit of detailed fiberglass work, but so does the motorcycle headlight mod. Also the...

Thank you Scott, I appreciate the details. It is on my list now.

Thanks Kyle

Does anyone know how or where to buy a front nose hinge? or detailed drawings? I am tired of asking Fran without a response.

I recommend the jaguar F type 2014-17 headlights . LOL . Just an idea and another option for you.

I believe Aaron Hamilton has a connection for the SLC lexan windshield. You should PM him,

That is a beautiful piece of art, can't wait to hear it. The outer tip is a nice final touch.

glad you got all the leaks fixed, that is the way this project goes sometimes
