This is one of my favorite dashboards, think it's custom. Perfect combination of classic mininess and modern tech, the car was a mini world feature car. The owner is on here but his name escapes me. This is a pic from the dashboard directory.

It's Oz Coopers Mini, who on here is Matrix.
I asked him on facebook about it, as its a really nice variation of the traditional wooden rokee dash, and he told me its a custom one that he reverse moulded from an original rokee dash, something which im going to be having ago at in a few months time

:P

Have a look on this site http://www.silvercrest-woodtrim.co.uk i got some door handles from a mini show autojumble and had them look new so you could do the same with a dash.
