Read the GTCG rules thread to see who is authorized to create GTCG threads. This thread is closed until you correctly guess one.

Raza didn't create a new thread within 24 hours, so he missed his turn. This thread has been re-opened in its place.

Good luck to you all.

Thats a sort of modified version, but the guages, (main ones) wood trim, and steering wheel are all the same.

I just saw the steering wheel has 3 holes, whereas 280Z turbos has onely two.  They still look very similar.  Can anyone verify that they are the same?

Don't be so impatient. The topic starter is online here, he can verify if you're willing to wait for more than 30 seconds.

I didnt realize.  I only put my second post simply because I noticed the steering wheel was not the same.  Then, in the same post, I just asked if anyone could verify if they were the same.  I didnt post twice because I was impatient.

I wasn't trying to be rude there. Should've used a " :P " smilie, but I haven't memorized their codes to be able to use them in Fast Reply.

No harm done ;)

I know, but waiting for something to load defeats the purpose of fast reply.  ;)

Nope.

BTW, sorry about my mistake everyone. Didn't realize posting a new topic was forbidden for non-winners. I never spent much time in here before, so I didn't know the rules.

That's fine, it turned out to be very convenient to have one ready when one of the winners never posted a thread.

My bad, fellows.  I hate computer problems (as in I just got my network set up so I can use my own computer now!).

Oh well.

I think the spitfire had the guages in the middle of the car.

Maybe different years the dash changeed or something. It's no coincedence he dropped that hint though I think.

I just did some research on google - there were 4 generations of Spitfires, MKI to MKIV.
The one pictured is a MKIV.

Another MKIV dash.

Post by: BMWDave on May 25, 2005, 08:11:33 PM
It looks to be similar, but there is a big hole in the right hand of the dash which the picture 280Z posted doesnt have.

Psilos got it first.  He should start the new thread.  Once Psilos said GT6, I said GT3.

Whoops, I thought that was you who guessed GT6.
It does look like a GT6.

I'm guessing all the Triumphs had very similar dashes, they pretty much used a one size fits all sort of thing.

Or they didnt have enough money to design different ones for various cars.  My dad had a Triumph GT6 at one point.
