[DMCForum] Re: prototype binnacle and guages

["cruznmd" <racuti1@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

There were probably a few prototypes made besides the one shown in 
SSI or on Tamir's website.

The problem I have with the auction, is that he's showing that one 
prototype out of the car, then he's showing the normal, production 
instrument cluster installed in the vehicle as though they are the 
same.

So, the question is- Which one is he selling???
