MG TD TF 1500 - A little glovebox door work

Before:

After.

Finding a piece of vinyl to match a 62 year old dash wasn't going to happen. I make custom furniture. I have a laser cutter. This was not a problem.

Beautiful work!
John Mitchell

Nice! I had to handmake the ones I used on my wheel :)

It's not only superbly done, but it also catches the MG spirit. Cecil Kimber would have loved it.

And here's a stainless steel latch to top it off.

So many guys are putting veneers on their dash boards, it has crossed my mind to offer these as ready to go kits in different woods. for other cars/logos.... This is a direct graft from the radio panel in MGA's.

Don't know if it'd be worth spooling up for, and then advertising.

The cool thing is, once the design is 'in the computer' it's scalable.

We'll see.

I embellish my furniture with almost 40 different period-correct designs.
