Safety Harness Mounting Plates

For the IVA, there needs to be a radius on the safety harness mounting plates that screw on underneath the car where the eye bolts bolt through.  This was rounded off using a file, then I buffed the edges a bit with the polisher.

These are fitted to the car using stainless self tapper screws. The holes for the eye bolts could then be drilled through ready to be finally fitted when the carpets are installed.





These were then roughed up with a scotch pad, sprayed with etch primer and then semi-gloss black paint.

Dashboard

I have set out the standard GD dashboard layout which was pre-marked on the blank panel. I used a hole saw the neat size of the gauges, however the holes will need to be opened up later for the leather to fit in.

Even though the dasboard is uncovered, it makes the car look ever more complete.

I may alter the position of the switches, but this will be looked at later.
