    Is Wabbit Woodworks still in business? Their website seems to be down and the links at hotrodhotline don't work.

    For some reason that dash reminded me of these.

  7. It’s odd that the original fake wood grained steel dashes are cooler than a real wood dash

    The link above does not take one to their website. The latest dates on the link are 2009. Apparently the website is gone.

    Thanks for the info arkihotrods. Does look like they're shut down. Think I'll just made the parts I wanted out of metal and have them transfer dipped.
    vtxl800, Thanks but that link only shows an add with a link to the Wabbit's Wood website which is gone.

    I've got a Wabbit in my avatar, but he's not wood, just Mad. This was a cartoon cel done at Warner Bros. in 1944 as nose art for my dad's F6F.

    I've got the cel-had it re-framed in archival materials-special glass,etc. It was done by a friend of my dad's who was an animator at WB. I only have a few pictures of the planes my dad flew-not sure if it ever got on a nose or not, but it is still cool. to me.
