Jack Hartshorn Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 (edited) Hi there, I'm looking for the dimensions or preferably an engineering drawing with the specifications on it. If anyone could help with this or tell me the dimensions that would be great. Thank you! Edited February 8, 2023 by Jack Hartshorn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian Girling Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 I do have a 13/60 dashboard somewhere (which I don't need) and although I think the switch and instrument layout is different I'm guessing the outline is the same, unless there were bodyshell changes between the models, maybe someone knows the answer? My postcode is TW20 in case you are close, you are welcome to have it. Could probably send it to you. Or I can sketch it with dimensions if that helps.

Hi, thank you for offering, mine currently has a 13/60 dash installed, if it’s not too much trouble would you mind sketching up the dimensions for me? I’m looking to have a custom dashboard made and I am going to try and make it on some cad software. Thank you! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just been by my 'shed', found it and took a photo. I'll check, but I think the line along the bottom is straight so if I place the ends over squared paper and trace around the edge with the end to end dimension, I think this should be pretty accurate - more so than if I just mark dimensions. I'll try to get to this at the weekend. It's about 108cm long so I can probably trace the whole thing on four A4 sheets. When you do the CAD it might be helpful for other members 😀 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrian Girling Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 I joined four A4 sheets together, 1 - 4 from left to right and drew around to get the outline. This should be fairly accurate. Scan of page 4 is not great - hope you can see the lines. I've shrunk the picture size of each to 20% so could send the higher resolution is you prefer. It's actually concave with the middle about an inch lower than the ends so I pressed down on the middle to trace around. But in keeping with "nothing worthwhile is easy" there are areas on the back which have been routed out to a depth of around 4.5mm leaving about 6.5mm of the 11mm thickness. And most of the outline (but not the cutouts) is chamfered. I took some photos. If not clear please ask. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is brilliant thank you very much, the back side I’m not too worried about since the person making it has templates so they just cutout what they need which is helpful but I will get on with making that in cad today or tomorrow. Thank you very much if it’s not too much would you be able to add the dimensions of the holes and the glove box for me please?

The instrument holes are 100mm diameter - I hope you can see this from the 20 x 5mm squares on the traces I sent? The hole near the "letterbox" is 21mm and the ignition switch hole is 24mm in diameter. The glove box door is a snug fit in the hole, with chamfered edge. I don't have any glove box internals. Hope this helps. Some photos attached. I am still happy to post you the whole dash if it makes it easier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you I didn’t realise how big the squares were on the paper but the size of those will help a lot because I can just count and add them up now, thank you for doing this for me it’s very much appreciated :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian Girling Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 Ah, I should have made it clear, the squared paper is 5mm squares. I made sure the 4 sheets were taped together with their respective horizontal and vertical lines aligned so the overall length should be right to within 1mm. Sheet 4 is hard to see the lines, I could scan again if needed. Hopefully you can post your CAD file? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once I’ve finished the cad drawing I’ll post it on one of the forums, I’ll let you know when I do, I’m a bit of a novice at cad so I’m trying to figure out how to do the corners properly lol 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
