Does an mnr dash fit a book chassis?
Dangle_kt - 25/11/09 at 10:41 AM

I want an mnr dash, the one that has that dip in The middle to meet the tranmittio s tunnel, does anyone know it is will fit on a book chassis size scuttle, and if any cuts are needed what it might include?

It might, it might not, but MNR won't sell bodywork to anyone who's not bought one of their chassis.....

Not even a dash? I've seen them on mac1 cars too?

isnt the mnr dash just the same as a normal one but with essentiall a centre console that joins it in one piece. why not just build you that will fit make a templat out of your current dash with the extra bit on the bottom to allow it to join the centre console.

The MNR dash and scuttle are all one piece.

And no I wouldn't think it would fit, even if you could get one, remember it's not just the width, it's the angle of the side rails.

Hmmm maybe is mac1 then? I can't use my current dash it's way too low all the way across and kills my leg as I can't bend it at all to move it off the clutch.

make it so its higher at the sides and lower in the middle. its the way im doing mine

Try Saturnsportscars as they have my old moulds and amongst them is a dash panel that fits almost everything as 4ft wide but can be trimmed down...oh and has that bit in the middle that meets the trans tunnel...

Thanks folks!

Are you sure your talking about the MNR dash? if you have an MNR dash/scuttle you will need a MNR bonnet and the tunnel is a seperate piece they do not meet.

Also the MNR dash doesn't meet the tunnel, well i dont think mine does last time i looked

That's a Mac#1 dashboard, although I believe MK also do the same dash.....
