Note that the two hatches are the same width from front to back... 24".  It is an optical illusion that the front hatch is narrower.  The rear hatch is twice as long (side to side) - 48".

Your garage is very messy!  Or is that an optical illusion too? :)

Hey hey hey... no comments on the surrounding area!

But yes, it is.  Too much time grinding/glassing - not enough time cleaning.

You must have a clean, safe working environment.  Or you may have to file Workers Comp on yourself!  :D

It's safe, and mostly clean.  Just too much stuff to be neat.   :wink:

Sorry guys... it is coming, but we are waiting on a console from Gause.  The tower was built for a Gause console (tapers at the front) so mine will not work.  Travis wants a console there before we do some "personalization" to the tower.  Plus I still need to pick a color for top/upholstry.  I'm in no hurry though- lots of fairing to go.

BTW, that means I will have a center console available, should anyone be interested.

Is this the console you'll be getting rid of?

That was it... but it has been rebuilt.  I needed a norrower console for use with a tower.  Some may find that to be good - others not.  It just needs to be faired and painted - all glasswork is done.  





It is about 6" higher than the original, and 6" narrower.
