    I found this dash at the Conroe swap meet yesterday. None of the old guys at the booth knew, one thought it might be Model T. I don't think it is, but...

    Anyway, it's 35 inches wide and has a weird column drop that is a wide oval instead of round. Enough said, if anyone has an idea, I'd appreciate it, just for the knowledge. It's likely going on a speedster project that is in the planning stages.

    Looks like it is from a Flintmobile.

    Bought at a swapmeet, so one never truly knows the source and origin of pieces like this.
    To me it looks like possibly a dash from a European car?

    Couldn't find an exact match but sure looks similar to mid 20's Chrysler.

    It doesn’t look like the bottom edge droops as much as the OP’s does....

    Another real close but not quite, 27 Star which is I think related to the Durant 49ratfink posted. Are the rivet holes there around the center section on shivasdad's dash? I'm not seeing them.
