As it was a LHD dash I don’t think there is a copy of It, but there are a few similar ones.

 

like ABS Motorsport does one of a similar style.

There never was a RHD Innocenti as that was a condition of the licence under which they were made in Italy.

It always seems strange to have an Inno instrument panel (LHD only) in one which has been converted to RHD and why anyone would do this is beyond me.

 

IMHO the Innocenti instrument panel and the interior in general is the best interior in any Mini. I sometimes wish I still had my 1973 version which I bought in poor condition and badly converted to RHD. I changed it back and it was very original when completed.

There is a company in Spain making copies in ABS plastic. I have not seen one but they are a lot cheaper than originals at 190 euros a pop. An original will set you back twice that for one without cracks.

You will probably need the correct Veglia or Jaeger dials to fit as well though... And the appropriate senders (fuel level, water temp are different and not interchangable). The speedo cable is also different but still available new from Minispares.
