alsancle Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Jason, on the 38 dash what is the gauge that goes in the middle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K8096 Posted June 28, 2013 Author Share Posted June 28, 2013 I think it's a radio blank out plate. The radio went in the center on 1938-39 senior cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsancle Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 That is one of my favorite dashes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Mitchell Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 He is correct, it is a radio delete. The man who ordered the car from Derham specified that the fluted trim between and at the sides of the instruments be ground off the dash and only the rings and border be chrome with the rest black, (from the letters btw he and Derham) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Huston Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 K8096 - Thank you for posting the pictures, I enjoyed seeing them. I wish this event had been closer to home so that I could have attended. We don't have many events like this in California. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
