 Re: MY NEW COUPE 3
Why would you want to know how to do that??????

MY OPINION, DONT MEAN TO OFFEND
Leave the coupe dash in there, and the time and money you save on doing that get a new grille and steering wheel, thats if you wanted my opinion.

 Re: MY NEW COUPE 3
you bloody old skool soldiers!!!

i love the stuff you guys hate, i love everything that brings it "into the nineties" (or even naughties), i am looking at similar stuff for my car, stuff that makes it seem like a 90's car not a 70's car

cause i understand people going the other way and keeping everything 70's but, i like this cars style

Kev Rowley has done it in several of his conversions including his son's SR20DE 1200 sedan. If you would like his number send me an email.

This dash is a classic 80s "Butcher Skool" example unlike many Habib specials.
Even in the rod scene where many wear flanelette shirts and moka-sins, never have the courage to be caught dead in a classic chev, ford or Dodge with Modern greek or lebo stylin.
Yeah that steering wheel is so cool that previous owner was such a visionary.
I wonder if he heard of Post retro or of modern retro hotrods? Making cars from the pimping seventies cars look like 80s Boy george racers brings in the very cool and visionary "Butcher skool" gang.
Full marks! another fine example of how to make your datto interior look like a lebanese Holden gemini youll be in good company with the Habibs.

??? Lots of words I haven't heard before.

I thought they put the new speedo in there so it worked with the CA18 ECU?
