Kobra dash

Danny_HUFC 30 Jun 2017, 5:08am
Been away from the forum for quite some time now so just having a catch up on the threads.
I notice the swb dash conversion and it looks fantastic!
Has anyone done 1 on a kobra?
Also what dials etc where used on the SWB dash?

Summers coming up and ive got a kobra kit sat there doing nothing so I'm on the look out for a 3.0 donor.....

Welcome back to the fold Danny.

I am unsure as to that dash in anything other than an SWB. It's an interesting thought though

It is a dash for a z3 isn't it?

Geoff, i have had a look through your thread but none of the pictures show up? I tired on my iphone and my laptop. all the images just say 'Please update your account to enable 3rd party hosting'??? I can see everyone else pictures just not yours for some reason?

Evening Danny i started with this ,



Then dismantled the Z3 instrument panel ,



Removed the Z3 instruments and fitted to the rear of the Jaeger units



This gave me a rev counter and a speedo but in the large Jaeger units , the water and fuel guages were fitted into old Smiths units ,

Side view,



Front view ,



I also printed new faces to include Veglia , hope these help , Geoff .
