Default Cab 12 F60L Dash and Instrument Panel

Hi all - with all the recent discussions about these vehicles, I decided to spec. build the above. The instrument panel is my standard one utilising NOS gauges and a rebuilt working speedometer. I bare metalled the housing after removing the plates and after restoration re-rivetted the plates. This was a labour of love and built to original specifications that included a battery volt meter and not an ammeter. The only incorrect aspect of this will be the data on the data plate but it is still labelled F60L. Unfortunately I haven't fitted any switches as I'm still trying to source some that look like the old ones and the impossible to obtain Ford script isn't there either. Now I've built it I want it to go to a good home and where better to start than in MLU. So if you have $375 plus postage, it's yours. PM me, first in, best dressed.

I could probably adapt it with the angle grinder.

Very nice work, Bob!

Default Adaptation

Hi guys - thanks for your comments. I should have mentioned that even though this has the F60L data plate on it, it could be utilised for any Cab 12 other than the F15, just by the removal of the F60L data plate.

Bob,
Why/how does an F15 cluster differ from any other cab12? (I do not have my instrument cluster.)
