Thanks for posting Sum.

I will finishing up the mounting of the cover in the morning.  I also laid up two other pieces yesterday.  It was a shame to only use a small piece of the * trans cover.  I could have made the whole piece out of glass but it was a little easier to do it this way.  When I mount the cover and instal the boots I will take another picture.

I will mount the through the floor gas pedal next, then the brake pedal and the steering column.  I had the customer set in the car a few days ago and we mocked it all up.

Quote from: "kb426"How many layers are you using?

Six layers on this piece.  I alternate with cloth and matt.  On this job I used smaller pieces and overlapped them a lot.  I was not interested in a smooth finish but more for strength and shape.  It will all be covered with insulation and carpet.
