What Is the nice grey material that mk use for tunnel tops, it usually has nice right angle edging fitted too, it looks far more professional than my efforts. Can you buy it if not buildig an Indy? And will the tunnel top dms match as I'm building a live axle locost.

Thanks

The ali strip is from a horse box company in east anglia and most of the internal panels are a plastic sheet.
Mac1 motorsport or mk would sell you the stuff no problems.

The name of the horse box supply company excapes me but one of the others will no doubt remember the details Eh horse burgh or something like that

The handbrake lever itself is just a sierra,the leather gaitor I got from halfords,just a universal jobbie,the chrome surround I picked up from a Newark show,and the knob itself I bought of ebay. here.
