    Ford Escort MK1 Boreham Style Works Dashboard supplier.?

    Guys does anyone know of a supplier for the original style Boreham Works Style Dashboard.?
    I have the Twin Cowl Dashtop but I am trying to source the Boreham style centre part that fits between the 2 Twin Pads.
    I saw it advertised on a UK old Skool website a while ago but I didn't save the site.
    any help would be appreciated
    Cheers
    Rob

    Try Yuk Speed? http://www.yukspeed.com/

    Are you talking about the center Aux panel which sits on top of gear box tunnel?

    Here's what mine looks like:

    he usually has these (fibreglass version) on ebay, but has none listed at mo http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/yukspeed/m...1&_ipg=&_from=

    or it could be that you are talking about the top ones as per?:

    for which I do not know, maybe have to make one yourself?

    Hi Andy
    Yes that's a MK2 one
    I saw the ones on Retro but they are different
    That centre panel that sits between the 2 cowling is a separate part by itself
    That's the one I saw on a UK website somewhere
    Cheers

    Make them

    Either try a dyno label printer machine (using white on black tape) or what I did was using a drawing programe like coral draw and print them off on some sticky back glossy papper in my injet printer.
