It started as a Laser Scan of the factory dash. Then had to reverse engineer all the gauges, the switches, led the vintage air products, and single din radio slot.
Everything was designed using UG NX 7.
This is a pretty well thought out piece. It's got all the instruments you'd need. 2 auxiliary ports for 12 volt power.
This piece will fit better than any plastic piece on the market.
Personally I think it looks better than a Covan dash.

Nice work! I want my own 3D scanner.

Laser scan? That sounds cool. I thought it looked like NX. I work for Siemens & have used NX/Unigraphics since V9, back in 1992.

It definately looks a thousand times better than a Covan. Covan dashes are extremely overpriced. I used to have one. While it is an ok piece, I was highly disappointed that is was just a thin piece of vacuum formed ABS plastic for the price.

Not a bad price for that much machine time, Looks good

Beautiful work guys!

Thanks Guys. Bob and Matt should get most of the credit and of course the customer for paying the bill.

I remember seeing something that Bentley uses 1 piece dashes like this to control the amount of in-car noise. I can't help but think this would help as well, real nice work guys.

I have about one week left on this deal. We may never have a group together to do another one at a later date. This is a cheap deal for this kind of work.

Final days, Black Friday Sale. How ever you want to say it.

I have sold 7 of these deals. After this they will be much more expensive.

We have an AC version, and a NON AC version.
