58 Windsor Dashpad Assembly question

heldam Posted 2018-05-03 7:36 AM (#562727) Subject: 58 Windsor Dashpad Assembly question Veteran Posts: 149 Location: Perth, Western Australia Hello, Does anyone have a "reference original" car or authentic restoration of a 58 Windsor that can share a few photo's of the instrument binnacle and crash pad over the instruments. My crash pad was removed so just considering the original look prior to proceeding with assembly. Kindest Regards, Damian (58 Windsor Gauges rechromed.JPG) Attachments ---------------- 58 Windsor Gauges rechromed.JPG (130KB - 110 downloads) kenbiello Posted 2018-05-03 8:09 PM (#562771 - in reply to #562727) Subject: Re: 58 Windsor Dashpad Assembly question Veteran Posts: 121 see these (IMG_0784.JPG) (IMG_0784.JPG) Attachments ---------------- IMG_0784.JPG (119KB - 118 downloads) IMG_0784.JPG (119KB - 120 downloads) kenbiello Posted 2018-05-03 8:10 PM (#562772 - in reply to #562727) Subject: Re: 58 Windsor Dashpad Assembly question Veteran Posts: 121 i didn't think the Windsor had the chrome front with the painted back heldam Posted 2018-05-07 8:23 AM (#562904 - in reply to #562772) Subject: Re: 58 Windsor Dashpad Assembly question Veteran Posts: 149 Location: Perth, Western Australia Thank you!

The '58 had chrome outers, but the '57 was painted. Also, the back part of the '58 gauges were always painted black, unlike '57 that had multiple colors.
