What's that stuff like for static? You might be able to use it to help keep the battery charged.  Shocked

Looks good.  Cool

Thanks Guys!

Fabric is old stock, really old & stiff... I've bought it on this nice forum and i've had Bernard Newburry make the interior. And he did an amazing job I have to say..

Dieds, not sure about the horn button either.. It's about 2 mins to put back the black insert on the button though, so no problemo... Wink

And Jon, even if I wanted to do the dash, there's about 10*15cm left of the fabric.. Not enough to make the matching underpants either..

wow, that certainly looks cool!
i'm not too fond of the new horn button thought, i thought you restored that nicely at the time.
but where's the shot of the matching underwear Cheesy

jon, there's a pic of the herculon at the top of the page, so i'm assuming roland had this made recently.

Joe Gallagher sold it: http://cal-look.no/lounge/index.php/topic,10787.msg164323.html#msg164323
