Instrument Panel
A major component missing from XS420's cockpit was the instrument panel. If you note the word 'was' this has now been addressed with a new panel being commissioned from Shelley Engineering Ltd.
The panel was laser cut form 5mm aluminium using the original panel (kindly loaned from Mike Potten) as a pattern.
On 30 August 2014 the panel was test fitted in 420's cockpit and was found to be a good fit. The panel now needs to be etch primed and painted. It is also hoped that wording can be etched onto the panel as per the original.
