Interesting dash indeed. Wish I could tell what it came from! Looks pretty solid on the outside...

I was thinking a early 70s Chevy C10, or?
I am totally being random.
Dig the project, though!

There's a bit of work in that truck. Notice the A/C and CB radio on RH side? The pedals, wheel, and A/C and cluster all appear from the same vehicle. And I can't tell, but is that brake pedal firewall mounted? And I don't believe that's a truck cluster. Not with the heat and a/c controls there. This is bugging me because I know I know that cluster and column. It's not a 67-72 C10.

Edit: The more I look at that cluster the more it looks like a ChryCo part.

Now, that is an unusual choice, IMO.;)

I knew I'd seen it! I had a regular customer that owned one many years ago.

I love the older jeeps i had a j20 years ago and miss it is how i spotted the gauge cluster.That cluster is from the late 70s to the 80s under the temperature lever it has the color bar the older ones just said temperature.The cluster looks like it fits pretty good if they would have welded up the small v hole at the bottom it would have looked factory almost.
