Hi, i am looking for pictures which shows the original Sprint dashboard.
My Sprint has the ignition key on the dashboard and i want to go back to original (ignition key on steering column) but they are so many different dashboard styles :roll:
What kind of wood was the dashboard made of?

Thanks for your help.

I have attached 2 picture's of Kenny Mance's original Federal Sprint (like yours), has one of the best original dashes I know of...

Note the "Fasten belts light" between the radio & glove box, I have not seen that in any replacement dash.

I believe the dash to be made from ply with a straight grained Teak veneer
