New Dash is here...WOW

[Duke]

My new dash just arrive from Prestige Autowood in CA. Just amazing work. I opted for the optional glove box door.

Here is some pictures, the first features the dash that was in the car and the new one. Talk about improvement! -

Well, it back into the garage to get all of the gauges, switches and cables installed and then back in the car. It's gonna be sweeeeeeeeeeet.

I have been to their shop to see them make the dashes--they do most of the wood dashes for sportscars. I have had several done, (one for my Tiger and one for my RHD Harrington) they look great as you now well know. Enjoy.

PS now you need the Mota Lita steering wheel to match

Prestige Autowood does not have a web site.

His number is - (408)288-8737

The price was $550 and worth every penny.

It is available for purchase if you would like it. I have an awesome shipping box ready for it

Hi Duke,

Very nice new dashboard. Is the old dash an original item as it looks quite dull? Is your new dash colour correct for the Tiger (I'm not picking at your new dash, just curious).

Regards, Robin.

The old dash is not original. What is the "correct" color? I don't know and really don't care as far as the dash goes.

The dash's color will also change over time.

BTW - PA just sent 10 of these to Sunbeam Specialties to sell. I got the "pick of the litter" though.

A quick shot of it installed.

I'm happy with it. So, what does a OEM choke knob look like?

Duke,

Tigers never had a manula choke, they had an automatic choke, so no knobs, just a chome plug.

Amazing what a difference a new dash can make!
