looks almost like a retrofit - that the original panel was much too small for modern instruments

The first prototype had indeed somewhat smaller analog instruments.

Pusher?
Where are the engine instruments? There's a small group left of the P2's instrument group, but nowhere near enough for what looks like two throttles.
But where are the prop and mixture/condition levers?
