I don't think that is for a 67.

Looks like it is for a 65-66 truck instead. Could be wrong but it just doesn't look right for our trucks. I think there is supposed to be switch holes on the left side of it and there are supposed to be two big holes on either side of the main cluster to fit the factory vac gauge and tachometer.

No, that is not a '67 panel, it's for the '65-'66. There's no way it'll fit a '67-up.

That will not fit our trucks. But I am pretty sure in the F600 and up trucks I have seen the 66 model cabs on them and they were listed as 67's. Maybe they were just the first 67's released. They seem to have all been fire trucks if that makes any difference.

I wasn't sure I liked that gauge cluster anyway. I like the larger gauges. I need to find a painted one because I want the same color as the truck.
Thanks for the input and the help.

I have a 65 in the garage and my dash is a little different than that one, the sides where those little star shapes are on mine there circles, like you could cut it out and put more gauges in cause thats what somebody did :hmm: sure thats not a 64 or older? :hmm:
