Spotty is coming over to mount some gauges and we made a aluminum panel for the ignition and relays.

Will post some pics later.
No where near your guys league, but i would use a factory style fan shroud in addition to the e-fan.
I know, over kill for just track runs,

The plan is to have the car at Norwalk, from what I understand.

How would a factory shroud benefit in this instance?

I was thinking the same thing about the dash...pretty neat looking, with the pseudo gauges. What material is it made from?

It's probably fiberglass. Not that hard to do really. My buddy Rob Shneider made the one that is in Wayne Garrison's Judge race car.

So THAT'S what he's doing these days after the Dukes of Hazzard went off the air? 'Glass would be the likely candidate, but the texture and "speckle" color looks very unique.

The owner John Kane hand made the dash from foam material and had it line-x ed for textured finish also we made the "Fake " guages from an original set and then made digital prints and mounted them on aluminum blanks then glued them to the dash.The dash can be removed in minutes.
