I'm in the process of making a mold of the original dash.... also re-vinyling, and making custom gauge clusters. I'm not sure when I will have them available but I should have them within a couple of months. I will post pictures of the project as I get them

As far as it being caged and everything I will go with an alluminum dash.

I'm doing this to remake the old one and possibly start selling them.
