1940 Ford Deluxe Dash in a 40 Ford Pickup Truck

"Doug,

I'm thinking of replacing the dash in my 1940 Ford P/U With a 1940 Deluxe Dash !! What do you think.

Thomas,

It's hard to beat that look when you can retain all the original gauges and trim. What's hard for me to understand is why people will install the 40 dash and then remove everything that makes it what it is. They end up with just a silhouette of what it was, loosing completely, the charm and wonderful design work. Guess it's along the same lines as removing door handles and adding hidden hinges, swinging the door backwards etc. You can turn a real car into something that looks plastic. Just my opinion, for what that's worth.
