Very nice dash.

I can't tell. Are there black areas like original and did they do that?

Is the face brown or is that reflections in the photo?

How much did they do, and what did you have to do, I guess is what I'm asking.

They did it all. Black around the outside and gauges. Chromed it and even polished out the gauge lenses. Dave

Hate to hijack but can any one tell me which idiot lights are where? I know turn signal is bottom right when looking at gauge cluster. Also anyone know where I can get the little tabs that the lights shine through?

Hijacker! Your new post button was broke!

The lights are top left = Gen, top right Oil, bottom right = turn, bottom left = Hi beam.

I dont know where you can get new ones but you can probably have them made at a decal or sign shop pretty cheap.

It may be that there is some variation in the position of indicators. On my 1965 Custom Cab clockwise starting with the GEN on the lower left, HI BEAM on the upper left, LOW OIL on the upper right and TURN SIG on the lower right.

I've shared a PDF file that includes instructions on how to make replacement lenses (includes the proper font and size for each lens). Here's the link to the file.

Wow that's probably better looking than when it was new
