Hey All,

JiveBomber and I were trying to figure out if the two pictured holes are stock on my 41 Ford Pickup dash. He and I could not figure out what would go in them stock. The previous owner removed the heater unit. Maybe they were supposed to hold knobs that controlled the amount of heater air to each window?

I was thinking of using them to mount turn signal flashers, but that may be too goofy.

Anyone know what these are for?

Thanks,

Mike

41 Ford air conditioning! Well almost. Maybe someone had defrost fans mounted in those holes.

I believe he has a wiper control on the dash, just to the left outside the picture.

Mike- When you take a dash picture, take off your Club next time!! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I went out and looked at some of my 40 Ford trucks. They all have one hole and its on the drivers side.

if you do put turn signal lights in there you should use red for the left side and green for the right http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Good thought, but I have only one vaccum wiper (that works!) and the knob is more to the driver's side and not in this photo. I'll see if anyone else has ideas, but I'm thinking someone put these holes in there for SOMETHING at one point, but who knows what.

Would make good mounting holes for Hula Girls I guess...

And Jay, yeah I should have taken off the pink club. Looks too much like some contorted sexual toy. Subject for another post I guess. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
