    For the fiberglass dash top (6 dial type), blank gauges fascia and bonnet skin you could try Geoff Wade on mob= 0417369996. He's outer SE Melb. suburbs.
    I've used the dash top in my car. It requires some light sanding on the edges to eliminate the high spots to give a snug fit. Not so important if you get it padded or flocked.
    re head lining bows, do you know if mk1 & 2's are the same? I have some but not sure which they are. I know the roofs are different curves but I'm not sure on the head lining bows. Perhaps somebody else could comment on this

    Cheers thanks for that mate, I will give Geoff a call today. As for the headlining bows being the same, I am not sure either.

    I can make a dashtop and blank dials cluster , (GW bought a blank cluster off me yrs ago to copy), mine is moulded from my twincam cluster
    As for roof rods they are different between mk1 and mk2 .

    Ok sorted for dashtop/instrument cluster and bonnet, still chasing the rooflining bows if anyone has a set or even a few random ones I can get. Also chasing a set of Hillman Imp front indicators like the 'Works' Mk1 escorts had, if anyon could point me in the right direction that would be great
