I have nothing to do with the postings on SAOCA but am a member there and just had a look… interesting stuff he’s doing.
Funny, I also needed to make up dash/heater lettering a couple years ago and worked for quite a long time to get it just right and in fact had several rub transfer sheets made. I ended up making several new dashes and the letters look great.
The tach in my above picture is indeed ‘cobbled’ as I just placed part of an Alpine tach ‘over’ the Hillman speedo face… ‘metal on metal’ lol Now, I think I will look into doing it all on the same background with decals/ rub-on letters. I do think either 7k or 8k would be more appropriate…
It’s sort of on the back burner for now as the ‘Mustanganization’ of my Tiger continues… I’m sorting the last bits of grafting a AMC tailhousing on my Ford Motorsport t-5 to replace the toploader…
Love to chat… on anything ‘Tiger’ … jim@island.net
