Fasterpatricks Custom Cobra

[fasterpatrick]

Hey guys,

I've been busy lately trying out some new things. just a peek at what will be the dash / tunnel cover for the scratch build. now I could never have a stock dash in this car. So as per usual I'm going overboard with a one piece unit that will house all the gauges, switches and whatnot. It is still in it's crude form(lots of sanding required), then I can pull a mold of it to make the final part. I'm still on the fence if I should cover it or paint it to match the car.

I'd paint it to match the car.
How is it going to be to work on the wiring and if you need to replace a gauge when the car is complete with it being all one piece?

It's going to have cracks from the chassis flex painting would be a mistake..

Patrick's chassis will flex..after the M1 Abrams flexes.

If it ain't have a 14 point cage it will bend.
Hang everything on the car jack it up at the CG and see what happens..
