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.
