Well that didn't work so well. I'll try again.

 

My contribution from my 1948 Plymouth.

"It's a beautiful dash, it really is but it's smiling at me"

 

One of the last shots of the mock up before I tore it apart last fall.

 

1949 Chevrolet..... the bottom picture shows what they look like stock.

 

I never liked the look of a 33-34 ford dash...mine is now a 34 top rail welded to a 34 chevy bottom half with a Champion insert.

 

ThIs is a great thread. Some really nice dashes. Very creative ideas.

 

The dash in the Ranch Wagon.

This is what a original '54 dash looks like.


Hammered both ends of the dash to add the air ducts & filled in the heater controls to add one of the vents.



I also deleted the idiot lights and added gauges.



The headlight switch & wiper switch was relocated on ether side of the column where the original fresh air vents were. HRP

 

The '40 dash I'm modifying to go in my '36 3-window.

My 34 roadster dash. I made the glove box door & gauge panel from a damaged speed limit sign & covered the dash with a leather skit from a thrift store.

 

I may have posted this before, and have seen this setup a number of times on here before, but here is the dash I did for my 31 roadster. It is a Brookeville 32 style dash for a model A opened up to accept the aluminum insert panel. I think it came out pretty good. The ignition key is the round knob directly under the speedo. I ground down the key and threaded a matching knob onto it so the ignition wouldn't look so out of place. I am also going with a matching column mounted tach. Here are a couple in process shots and a finished shot.

 

My 36 ford wall hanger.

 

My '29 Model A cabriolet dash. Woodgrained dash with '28 Chrysler instrument panel insert and hand made switch panels with same graining.

All finished except for switch bezels. I have posted pics of this on a number of threads. I love the look and enjoy it every time I drive the car.

 

Not mine, but from a car show. Just had to take a photo.....mid 30's Caddy

 

Can someone tell me what this is out of? I was told a 36 Olds when I bought it, but now I'm not so sure.

model t narrowed and an unknown dash under it for my single seat project

 

My old black 32 sedan mordor. HRP

 

My 47 Lincoln Zephyr Club Coupe dash

 

My avatar: Made the aluminum dash insert for my instruments and added a console to handle the electrics, switches, radio, etc. with a small glove box door for my stuff, paper work/documents.

 

A radio should fit that rectangular hole. I did exactly the same thing to get a radio in mine because Ford thought it was so cool to make that goofy shape that nothing else will fit except for those $500 radios that are currently on the market.
