    Second fascia is a HJ one and I needed to cut bits from Kingswood fascia's and weld them together to make a big enough infill piece




    Panel welded in for non radio fascia as per HJ Sandman



    There are 10 holes all together in this fascia that need to be filled in to repair it



    These take a hell of a lot of work to repair and are very time consuming, I hope they are worth the effort.

    I would like to ask you guys out there what you think a restored HJ/HX fascia would worth to you. These will be either black or the correct Portland Grey depending on model and will have the silver outline applied. Most have missing light lenses so until Jason gets his finger out and produces repro's I can't do much about them.....

    Repro HZ ones are $200 so I doubt I will bother restoring too many original HZ ones...

    For you Jennie.... not a problem.

    How about some pics of the dash now it's all installed......

    I'll have your speedo all ready for you when you come down as well... sorry it's taken a while but I wasn't expecting to be uprooted and moving across two States....
