Hello All, I have an August 14,1968 Series 2 FHC.
The entire dash pad with vents is missing.
I am uncertain if an OTS or Series 1 dash pad and demister vents will fit. My windshield is out.
What are the differences?
I am looking for the dash pad and vents , but I do not wish to purchase something that will not fit. Any advice or experiences or availability of one would be appreciated.

You may wanna try Welch Ent

They have a few E-Types that they part out.
I found SNG Barratt to have a comprehensive selection. I found this listing for new parts for SII FHC
If you look at a catalog such as Barratt’s, you’ll see that the S2 dash pad and vent arrangement is quite different from the S1. The prices for the vent parts are also astronomical.
Thanks for the tip Clive.
I see from comparative analysis that Series 1 have the demister vents closer to the windshield with angled vent tubes. Series 2 further from windshield edge with straight vent tubes.
I procured a Series 1 dash and vents and have yet to see if it will fit my early August 1968 Series 2. We shall see, if not,it is nice and hopefully will find a home.
I like the demister vent placement on the Series 1 better.
Your home sandblasting photo is most excellent.
