GRP Bodywork: We've developed the bodywork recently. The rounded nose cone is now standard. We've commissioned a new carved rear end to the nose cone so that the bonnet halves sit better and slightly deeper. The rounded nose cone is far more vintage. The scuttle has had the central strake removed enabling a Vee screen to sit far better. In addition the bottom flange which is bolted down to the chassis is now thicker and wider. We riv nut the scuttle down enabling an easy removal of it. You may have a solid elm or an aluminium dashboard for the standard scuttle.
Here is a 17mm thick solid elm dashboard fitted to a Honda CX3 car. We have an alternative scuttle design, called the Aero scuttle which is a vintage twin scalloped/twin humped type. This looks very period when fitted with an engine turned/circle polished dashboard. In due course, we shall have drop in GRP rear panniers and a fully enclosed cover over the rear wheel. New Aero scuttle, fitted with aluminium dashboards. These dashboards are available in plain, polished and engine turned finishes.
You can just make out a laser cut glove box compartment lid. These will be hinged and will have a magnetic catch. The design of the Aero scuttle allows for a sizeable glove box. Naturally, at cost, you may have a wooden dashboard for the aero scuttle.
Here is a bare unpolished aluminium dashboard fitted to an Aero scuttle. You will note the large glove compartment aperture, awaiting a compartment lid.
