Snake45 Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 I've always like the airplane-like panel of the '63-'67 Corvettes. I had two '69 Camaros for a total of about 15 years, and the view in front of me always made me smile, especially at night. The '70s Trans Ams with all that engine-turning were hella cool, too. Sorry, I don' have any pics of any of these.
TooOld Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 I'm a little biased since I've owned a few of these , but the '59 and '60 Chevy dash is one of the best reasons to drive one !
Foxer Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 (edited) I'm a little biased since I've owned a few of these , but the '59 and '60 Chevy dash is one of the best reasons to drive one ! Hands down I agree with this! These are even the "right" color! I bought a 10 year old '59 Impalla, white with red interior, JUST for the dashboard! and my Facebook page will back me up on this Edited October 10, 2014 by Foxer

Man these just keep popping up. Thanks Bob. When i started this with the Studebakers My old '60 El Camino came to mind. I see I wasn't the only one that couldn't keep the emergency brake rubber on.

Greg Myers Posted October 10, 2014 Author Posted October 10, 2014 hackey-sack? I spy , emergency brake rubber on the floor.
Tom Geiger Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 I like putting unusual dashboards in my models. Here's a cut down '53 Studebaker dash in my '34 Ford sedan. and a '57 Chevy dash in my '34 coupe!
John Goschke Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 I've owned a lot of cars, but my favorite dash was the one in my '60 Chrysler Windsor. That big "gumball" with the tiered gauges and the radial speedo dial with the glowing green numerals as the centerpiece, with arrays of chrome pushbuttons with backlit transparent green centers was a sight to behold! They used this design from '60 through '62.
John Goschke Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 Another great dash that fascinated me when I was a little kid attracted to shiny objects was the one in my Grandad's '57 Olds 88 four-door sedan. The car looked a stripped down fleet car on the outside but the blue, white and chrome interior was beautiful place to be!
southpier Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 (edited) I learned to drive Mom's Chrysler with the push button shift. and Dad's Falcon with the 3 on the tree. Edited October 10, 2014 by Harry P.
jeffs396 Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 Always loved '55 Chevy dashboards: All the 'lil Bowties...
Tom Geiger Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 I always liked the old Rambler speedo with the zero to twelve mph range! That did baffle me as a kid.
Cato Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 Another great dash that fascinated me when I was a little kid attracted to shiny objects was the one in my Grandad's '57 Olds 88 four-door sedan. The car looked a stripped down fleet car on the outside but the blue, white and chrome interior was beautiful place to be! Joe the butcher taught me to drive at age 12 in this car and the dash was magic to me. The deep-dish wheel made me feel like controlling a space ship. Great memory...

unclescott58 Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 The '60 - '62 Chrysler dashboards is still one of the best. Any Thunderbird dashboard from 1955 - 1971. '58 - '82 Corvettes also. Studebaker Avantis and Hawks. But, my all time favorite dashboard is below. The Cord 810/812. Scott
slusher Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 (edited) I always liked Christine's dash Edited October 14, 2014 by slusher
ChrisBcritter Posted October 11, 2014 Posted October 11, 2014 My favorite Great American Jukebox dashboard: 1956 Packard.
