Dash
Layouts
(This page has a lot of pictures, so please be patient.)
Here's a picture of an original 1967 Roadster 427

Starting at the very left you can see (inside
the steering wheel) the black knob that when pulled lets in the
outside air to the left foot well. Just above the ignition is
the standard British red warning light for the alternator. The
Brake pedal is visible. There is a hole at the top and bottom
that at one time had rubber grommets so that your foot would not
slip off. The steering wheel does not have any horn button.
The horn button is located on on the back of the turn signal stalk
that you can see going to the right from the center of the steering
wheel. The tachometer reads to 8,000 RPM. Between the
tach and the reverse reading 180 MPH speedometer is the blue high
beam warning light. The top three gauges are (left to right):
Water Temperature, Oil Pressure, Oil Temperature. The bottom
two are Amps and Gas. The switches below the gauges are (left
to right): Parking then head lights, two speed heater fan, engine
fan on indicator light and switch (I added this so that I could turn
on the fan if I knew that I would I would be in traffic), and the
cigar lighter socket. The socket is empty because when the car
is sitting in the garage it is connected to a smart battery
charger/maintainer. The knob in the upper right is the panel
light switch and below it is the wiper control. Rotate to set medium
or fast speed and push for the windshield pissers.
