6 Hole Dash timber

Post by adrians »

Hi All,

I done a quick search on the topic and can't find the answer !

I believe a few years ago someone was selling the complete kit of dashboard timbers with 6 holes on the drivers panel (Speedo, Tacho, clock, fuel, temperature and space for a volt meter and oil pressure gauge)

Does anyone remember who it was ?

Thanks in advance.

Perhaps it was this post about Dash Panels being sold by Denise Burchette that was posted by LanciaHF?

http://www.fiatspider.com/f15/viewtopic ... it#p229157

The problem with that is that it was hard to do it as a one size fits all pre-finished kit since the dashes themselves originally and now due to age are not all exactly the same size and shape so there is trimming involved for a custom fit so the panels would have to be a compromise fit that would allow for the variations. After fitting the panels would have to be at least re-sealed along the edges where the were trimmed.

I think that was one of the post - i didn't search for "panels" !

Denise - are you still doing the panels ?

You may want to contact LanciaHF about Denise since she was not part of that thread or this one and ask him what her user name is if she is on the board or if he can contact her for you:
http://www.fiatspider.com/f15/memberlis ... le&u=37053

I did a bit more searching and I think that this may be her profile so you could try sending a private message and see if this is Denise and if she still makes the panels:
http://www.fiatspider.com/f15/memberlis ... ofile&u=15

However looking at the profile this member has not posted here for over a year.

I miss Sam!
Denise was in town recently for our annual meeting, pitching the 2019 FreakOut. If she's involved, you know it will be a quality event.
