Yes, Alex at Ulitimate Marine Panels states he makes OEM switch panels for Pantera. He was at the Miami Show with some.

Well I've been holding out on pix.
I finally have someting to take a picture of. So much of the work I'm doing can't really be seen.

Did you lay out the guages to clear the wheel at all driver angles? Or was it to accomidate the larger size? I have not seen a Pantera dash laid out that way. nice work!! That looks great!! Chris

Re: tomcei winter project
Hey Chris, I have some nic nacs for you.
Yes, to both your questions. I wanted to add a different feeling to the helm so I diverted from the straight lines. It took several lay outs before I setteled on this. We discussed some options earlier in the post. I knew I wanted the tach and speedo side by side and I wanted the other small gauges to have a little flow to it. the rest was dictated by the space restrictions on the dash.
I couldn't get stainless angle cut bezzels (Alum only). I decided to powder coat the alum angle bezzels white and then put the stainless on top of that. We'll see what it looks like when I get the gauges back.
Thanks Mike, I still need to install tack and speedo, interior, and adjust drive shifter, make new steering lines and that's about it. I hope to fire it up this next weekend and check for leaks. I made alot of new lines (fuel, water and oil ) so I'll keep my fingers crossed.
