Chev 12 cab dash layout

Just my thoughts but the light socket appears to be an 'add on field mod' The choke and throttle controls are not original .

The repro choke/throttle cables or knobs are available from US vendors

It might be just that, but all the examples I've seen appear to be in a standardised position.

Two more Cab 12 dash panels that have the Inspection Lamp Socket provision:

Hi Tony

The 5 cab 12s (parts) I have ALL have the light sockets.......

[Lynn Eades]

And the Fords use the same or similar socket in the side of the dash panel.....

Jeep repro dealers sell a very very similar socket for dash mounting.... not sure what year civilian Jeeps had such an option.... repros have a chromed bezel which can be sanded and painted OD..... they must also have the matching male plug.

Dirk Leegwater still has stock of the Originals, looks like the finish was/is Nickel or Nickel Silver.
