Official Dash Diagram Thread

Anyone ever see the factory optional two hooks, tachometer or fire extinguisher?
I wonder where they were mounted?

I'm thinking the tachometer was a wishful thinking by the marketing department. Never have I seen what would have been an optional tach for a Bronco. But hey, plenty of rarities out there still to be discovered I'm sure!

For 1966, there's also the Pull For Defrost as part of the fan switch and Pull For Heat being on a separate control by itself, but also according to the 66 owners manual, the control locations are in a different position as compared to the later years.

Anyone got a pic of a 72 dash? Mine does not look like Mars Chariot’s late 72/73 dash. Thanks - Jeff

PS Paul here’s a pic from 1965 with a tach (and Falcon horn ring!)

 

[DirtDonk]

Very cool pic. Was that taken in some early testing on a proving ground maybe? Or by an end-user after a sale?
Not a production, or even dealer installed item I wouldn't think. Judging by the electrical tape holding the wires to the dash and the Dymo labels on the dash over the toggle switch and below the other dealy-bobs.

Where did you dig that one up? Very cool indeed.

Thanks

Paul

Cool pic. Falcon button even lol. No dash pad either. Can't read what the knob label is at the bottom. Something "Selector"

It is a pic from Motor Trend September 1965, I saw it in a Bloomberg article from Jan 2017 talking about EB value doubling since 2012, let me find the link

I believe it is the Fuel Tank Selector.
I need to get my pic server back. Argh...

It was taken during Motor Trend's initial testing of the Bronco in June '65 for their September issue. Obviously a pre-production prototype rig.

I just paid dearly for that photo .

Back to my original question here’s a pic of what I have, so after some research here is my question, should the rows be (left to right)

TOP: Lights-Ignition OR Lights-Hazard
BOTTOM: Hazard-Brake Wng-Wiper OR Ignition-Brake Wng-Wiper

Thanks -Jeff

It looks like you have '71 dash. Maybe an early '72 model, attached is a layout pic. You appear to have a radio delete dash and the cigar lighter option was not purchased.

A '71 would be Left to Right:

Top: Headlight-Ignition
Bottom: Hazard-Brake Warning-Wiper/Washer

 

[Slowleak]

There is a picture in this thread. I think the ignition should be on the top, wiper on the bottom. I don’t think the ignition switch will fit in any of the other holes.

Thanks guys, now I get what you were saying in the other thread Slowleak, about no lighter, that's why only 2 holes on top. -Jeff

I guess I was assuming that all dashes were stamped the same and options could be added or not added...didn't think they would stamp a dash differently to not include a lighter! figured they'd plug the hole like they do with today's dashes

1967 Dash Layout question

Help...
I am working on a 1967 Bronco, built in March of 67. With two gas tanks. Based on the diagram, the holes are filled as follows:
LT -Headlight Switch
LM. Washer Switch
LB. Choke cabler

MT. Emergency flasher
MM. Brake warning Lamp
MB. Throttle

RT. Cigar
RM. blank
RB. Ignition Switch

Where does the fuel tank selector switch go?

 

[House]

Wow, what happened to the pic in my first post?
Sorry guys I will try to get that fixed!
The gauge selector switch goes on the lower edge of the dash,
below the hand throttle and ignition.

Thanks for the pics too. Love #2 with the floor pan rain gutter showing.

Doing some dash/wiring research and I noticed that, too. What really stood out to me, is that, like mine, the gutter appears to be spot welded rather than screwed.

I wonder what the production month on that one is? @eaglenest66 ?
