Elan S3 dashboard 1966

PostPost by: Frampty » Mon Jul 24, 2023 7:09 pm

Good evening bit of a longshot would anybody have the dimensions of a 1966 Elan S3 RHD dashboard.
I am looking to replace the dash in my car by making my own or getting it cut on a CNC wood cutting machine out of veneered plywood. The other option would be to model the dash on CAD and produce a solid. PS I was an aerospace designer using Catia V5.

Frampty,

I have an old S4 dash which you are welcome to borrow. I know the switches are different having square holes rather than round, but I assume the mounting holes are in the same places. I would want the old dash returned after you have used it.

I’m interested in this topic as I’ve been considering CNCing a new dash for my S3, LHD in my case, however. I have the original to take measurements and make a 3D model of, but if anyone happens to have a dimensionally accurate drawing that would be incredibly helpful.
