alsancle Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Dash threads are always cool. Two of my favorites are the 810/812 Cord & the 500k/540k Mercedes. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, its hard to tell without being in the car. But where the speedometer is lends to glancing down at it while looking down the road. Checking the clock requires a glance to the left. In any case they are both plenty big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The big hole in the dash is "radiant" heating. Shift pattern flipped, interesting. Did this vehicle manufacturer have their own transmission? Generally assumed on my part that utility vehicles used parts already in production for cost avoidance. Thanks for posting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHuDWah Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 I posted the "economy" version above - here's the Deluxe for comparison. Not bad but a little too "busy" for my taste - I like 'em more spartan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They flipped the pattern figuring that 2nd and 3rd were the most frequent gears used and therefore should be closets to the driver. Here is a view of the transmission. and at the other end the differential and brake (the only brake....) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesR Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 More great dashboards. How did they come up with the word "dashboard" anyway? I understand that it was kind of a board (in the early days) but I don't get the dash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
