Hi guys,
Was told that this was a Speedwell dash. Is it?

No definitely not.
Its possibly a Motortune one, but as I can't get onto the MK1 site at work any more I can't have a look round for a comparison. Check out Harespares / Motorama as a possibility.

Thanks for the reply Mark.
Went to check the Harespares catalogue and couldn't find the dash there...
Do you have any Motortune catalogue?

No, I don't have a specific Motortune catalogue. Maybe someone else will be able to supply a cutting. I know I have seen an advert if nothing else.

No matter what company made that dash, I hope someone replicates it! I'd love to have that dash in my '60!

Although superficialy similar. The first one on here is a genuine 1960's item the one in nthe ebay listing is one of the "Speedwell" ones from the 1990's they were done by John Adair & may have been based on the original one at the begining of this thread but they do have some noticable differences.

Yes you are right, just like the plastic W&P copies, that is for sale on fleabay, at premium price
nothing like the original item. This would never had happened when E Collins were running things

ooooh - I like that. Hopefully they will be made by someone sometime. I'd even convert to left hand drive to make use of that!!
