And here is a shot of the switch plates as I found them on my truck, which shows you what's what and where. Note the dimmer switch mounted on the left side of the housing.

Noticed that someone has installed a warning light in what would be the location for the stop switch isolation switch, do you know what it is connected too? Turn signal, high beam indicator, hazard indicator or something else? Just in passing I rewired the stop light isolation switch so that it provides power to the brake lights which passes through a signal flasher in parallel with the brake pressure switch. With the isolation switch in the on position it causes the rear brake lights to flash. When you step on the brakes the lights go on and do not flash. I also did install a indicator light for the high beam and one for the brake flashers. About the gauges over the years I have been able to collect spare gauges including the temperature some of them have slightly different markings than the original CMP gauges which I suspect did not all match depending on the supplier. One comment about the temperature gauge and sender tube assembly most of these that I have found have sender tubes that are significantly shorter than the original Chevy CMP. Some of them are long enough though if you route the tube carefully. Cheers Phil

Hi Phil - I don't recall if that light wasn't even connected, the wiring behind the panel was so messed up and cut to bits - which is why I needed a whole new harness and loom from you. I'm just hoping to get things as close to original as I can, plus turn signals.
The sender tube on the temp gauge I got is 42", which I thought ought to be long enough, but the seller had longer ones at 81" which I figured would be far too long.

Here's a dash panel waiting to be re-installed in my 1944 Chev HUW. To the best of my knowledge, it's as authentic as I've been able to determine after a 'few' years' of research.

Very nice looking panel and pic, and it also reminds me of where the dash jewel should go.

Since this thread is about gauge clusters - could someone identify the missing gauge out of the cluster from a Cab 13 F60L. Kind Regards Lionel

Simple Temperature, now next questions did Fords use the same as Chev.
Here is the instrument group from my `45 HUP. Cheers Phil
