    Just came across this. Am considering buying it, but would like to know what it is. And, who could restore the gauges?

    Doesn’t the emblem on the bottom center resemble Chrysler? Ie maybe a Mopar dash?

    Edit: not emblem, stamping I guess?

    It is a narrower and elongated version of two Dodge inserts/xovers/dashes I have, but neither of mine have tat stamping.
    Maybe a higher end version of automobile?
    Let me look a bit later for my stuff, maybe I can locate them;)

    Definitely doesn’t look lower end. Good looking dash for sure.

    @Budget36
    That sure looks like it's close if not the same.
    It might be too fancy for a track roadster, but I'm tempted anyway :eek:

    Surely if we apply adjustment for the time zone difference I win by a country mile. I had to wait 'til my morning coffee kicked in.......:rolleyes:;)

  20. Of course it’s a Dodge ! ( Chrysler , same thing)


    I’ve said it time and time again , Mopars had some of the fanciest interiors and dash boards out of all the manufactures back in da day !!!!

    this one is exceptionally splenderific , what’s the plan for it ?

    I found this and fitted it in a deuce style instrument panel. The gauges were updated for 12 volts.

    I REALLY LIKE that dash!
    The only thing keeping me from buying it is that it's quite fancy for what I'm building. (Track Roadster).
    Just doesn't fit the theme.

    I could change the style of car, but THAT would take an act of congress, and we know how long that would take:rolleyes:.

    The T bucket guys of old would mix and match eras and parts. I'm trying not to do that.

    Would go better in @Rickybop's coupe. How about it buddy?

    First world hot rod problems!

    Thanks, Bruce. It's definitely a nice set up. Yours looks beautiful, @Russ B Goes real nice with the banjo steering wheel. But I'm shooting for a plainer, more subdued, subtle look. So a little fancy for my project too.

    If I had @DDDenny's Deuce, I'd be all over that dash.

    Bruce, thanks for the nod, that instrument cluster is extremely cool and all but I'm not sure my little hot rod would be worthy of it.

    Well, when you sell it to me, I won't be able to find that dash anymore! :D

    They converted the wind up clock to 12 volts quartz for my '54 Ranch Wagon. Took about a month and they kept me informed about the progress along the way. YRMV
