    Looking for Dash options, It looks like Brookville makes a 3 window style dash for roadsters, but I couldn't find a picture of it on their website. I ***ume it only has the glove box door on the p***enger side. Does anyone make one with doors on both sides? if not having never seen one in person, how hard would it be to flip it & install one on the other side? I have a 1932 Packard dash I planned on using, but with the repair that it needs, I might run out of talent pretty quick ! Also, the glove box inners are big enough, there would be no way to get to the windshield post bolts (might not be a problem, but?) I have mocked the Packard dash up with the two gauge layouts I like. Any input or ideas? I really like the look of the Packard one or the three window style. I want a glove box or two ! The three window dash kind of offends my sense of proportion, with only one opening door, but I guess I could put my headlight switch on the same place as the handle on the other side ! 1932-ford-deuce-roadster-pickup-hot-rod-1933-1940-build-coupe-sedan-phaeton-4.jpg 0218191628.jpg 0218191628a.jpg

    Also, any Idea who made the insert on the brown car in a picture I found online?

    I hope they do. My sedan would like a glove box.

    That looks awesome ! Can anyone tell me if a 3 window glove box door is symmetrical on the horizontal center? obviously the way the inside is made, hinge attachment,latch mechanism etc. is different, but just the shape? like if I bought an extra door would the shape be right upside down on the drivers side?

    No it's not. You'd have to make one in a mirror image.
