Here are the replacement dash, door rails, door pulls and transmission console cover.  The wood is natural mahogany color, not stained, covered by multiple layers of spar gloss polyurethane.  The guage layout and radio/speaker placement are my own design.  The four toggle switches are for heater fan, hazard lights (This was a wiring nightmare.  I had to use a 4 pole double throw relay to emulate the original switch), engine fan (I like to be able to switch it in whenever I like.) and driving lights (not installed yet but some day).  The door rails and door pulls (or arm rests) are patterned after the originals but, again, in mahogany.  The mahogany under the shift gaiter is 1/4" thick and just inserted over the stock plastic one.  The map light is from an earlier model MGB.  The most time consuming part of the project was all the trial versions in pine.  Once the pattern was perfected the actual construction took only about two weeks.
