kleinporsche I had one of those in my old ghia years ago.....it was ok....but I really want the 911's dash (at least just the gauge cluster) intergrated into my car. I'm trying to hunt down the car ricola mentioned.....I've seen it before and also read the article it was in....just can't find the damn issue

I remember seeing something of this nature at the hoffmann-speedster website, in the fiberglass section. There is no picture, but it says 911 style dash for 1302. I remember sending an e-mail request to see if i could get a picture, but never got a reply. That was like a year ago. Also, im not sure the url for hofmann-speedster...google it.

nevermind, i googled it for you...

just click here, go to gfk section, and scroll down towards the bottom, there is now a pic of the 1302 version..(wonder if that was cuz of me??)

hope this helps!!

there is a picture now on hoffman speedsters site.

Ive e-mailed the guys over there and asked about getting it shipped to the US and they said its a no dice.

SO we need somebody in the US to make a 911 style dash for the 1303. I remember Carbon joe was till he shut down. when i get back to Ca there is a VW buggie body manufactuing place in my home town (Fiber jet), and i will see if i could work with them to get a 911 style dash produced.

im making my own metal dash for my 1303... the following pics might help you a lot... Both show the same from the same angle but with different colour, so some details can be seen. might help you make a template to graft in your 1302 dash

Alt+f4,

Since I live over here in germany, get in touch with me about getting the dash you wanted

what if the gauges were recessed into the dash like on many late model cars. I know that most dashes now stick out into the interior of the car but that kind of look, and possibly angled for easier reading. I think it would be possible but would it be practical or useful cause I think it would look pretty cool personally.

is there any salvation for those with RHD cars?

the most i know so far i that the guys at Glass-Action are willing to modify thier classic dash into RHD.... but i really like the dash from hoffman
