Barnacle instrument panel
Does any have a barnacle gauge panel that they’d be willing to draw up a template from? I’d like to make something along the lines of the barnacle..

Oh wow, I’d love one of these!
You don’t see them come up often, can’t be too many out there nowadays…

They are cool aren't they. I bought a load of NOS Barnacle stuff when they closed down, this is the last one of these I have now.

Absolutely incredible. I’ll join the list of punters on auction sites waiting for one to magically appear…!

Lovely catalogue Mark, I've a couple of mirrors on my cars and somewhere, a magnetic ashtray lurks hidden away

Re: Barnacle instrument panel
Brilliant, thanks Mark. Is this made of aluminium or is it plastic? Must be welded if metal, or is it cast?

It's pressed and folded steel with a rubber trim round the edge. The bottom side corners are welded.
