Can someone with an original dash and components on a 66 F100 post a picture of the instrument cluster as well as the ***** etc below it. I have some things that I need to order to replace missing ones on this truck I just bought. They dont all seem to exist in the catalogs like LMC Truck or Dennis Carpenter. A pic may help see whats really supposed to be there.

Thanks
Brian

 

Brian, posted couple pic's a for fellow member, can't recall the title of the thread or would have ran a search and posted the link, possibly included additional info by fellow members.

There are number of variations to the different style instrument clusters. The picture below is of the Custom Cab, there is a variation to this one that includes the 'alt' and 'oil' pressure to the right and left of the main cluster.

This picture is a variation of the Custom Cab intrument cluster minus the 'alt' and 'oil' gauge-disassembled:

This picture is what I now have installed in my 65 F100 standard cab. The original cluster only had the round speedo and did not have the openings for the 'alt', or 'oil' gauge:

I don't have any interior pic's that show the dash in any detail, I suspect another member will be posting pic's of theirs, if not, I can take pic's of the dash on the my 65. Seem to recall number of members posting pictures of their dash and can post picture. Also, suggest a quick browse of the 'post picture of your truck' thread, believe few members posted dash pictures. Anyhow, hope of some help, just keep in mind there are a combination, and varying types of configurations, certain a more knowledgeable member can help.

 

Thanks
Some of my confusion is that mine is like the 1st one here. But the "custom cab" trim piece under the gauge cluster appears to have the round semi circle cut out as if the speedometer should have been round. Maybe someone has changed either the gauges or the custom cab piece that sits underneat it. Also I cant find a piece for the emergency flashers. It has the bezel/light that actually flashes. As far as turning the flashers on it just has a **** but doesnt have the silver/chrome piece where it enters into the dash like I have for lighs, wipers, choke, etc. Should there be one or is it something different?

 

I just bought a new 66 cab and i have A LOT of dash parts i dont need. im swaping the cab out so i have doubles of pretty much everything. let me know send me and e-mail and we will talk.

66 Custom Cab trucks with the round speedo didnt have the lower trim panel as this was part of the chrome metal bezel used in 63 and 64.
65 and 66 with Custom Cab all had sweep speedo...plastic bezel and no lower metal trim panel..there were 2 different **** styles used...attachment method differed...this does not apply to the headlight, cigar lighter, glovebox, floor vent cables(61-4 and 65-6 1 ton and 4WD except 66 F100 4WD, radio or choke...that came as cable/bezel/**** assy.
Which switch do you need the ****/s for ??? Ive got lots of them.
