What car is that dash out of? Jd

The dash is out of a VK commodore. I split it in the middle to extend it. I have done away with it since these photos were taken and am building my own. Just need to finish mounting the heater unit and blower and I can then start putting together the frame.

I did it as part of a complete rewire. How easy does that sound?  ;)

Have completely stripped the wiring again so once I get the dash sorted out and the new donk in place it'll be complete rewire mk2!  8)

There's nothing like ripping it all out and starting again now is there... I admire your method! :D hahahaha

Rogue Trooper, do you have any photos that show your engine mounts ? I'm thinking about mid mounting a LD28 diesel.

I'll put something together. The engine crossmember is out at the moment seeing as I have removed the engine so that makes it easy to take some photos. Might be a day or 2 as I'm pretty flat tack at the mo'.

Here's a pic of my engine crossmember taken from the front. It bolts up to the old gearbox crossmember mounts.
