36 waterfall again

[Alaska Jim]

Here are a few pictures of the dash in my coupe you can see the type of bezel/knob that I am looking for on the Ign. sw. the headlamp sw. and the ash tray. I am looking for something for the hole that was used for the choke. maybe a power port of sorts, maybe a cigarette lighter with the same style knob if I can find a source. I can then use it to keep a cell ph. charged or use it for a GPS unit. I don't need a choke. any help appreciated.----Jim

there should be 4 holes....the open hole is for the cigar lighter, so maybe you could run a lighter there as you wish.....top left hole was for dash lights.....bottom holes for throttle and choke, left to right....Mike

yes, but trying to find a bezel that will match the headlamp and Ign. sw. for that empty hole. would like to find one to put on a lighter. Thanks for the info. Mike, I appreciate it

Those look similar to the ones that SoCal sells, check with them or maybe Bob Drake. He had some that were similar. I have a headlight switch like that on my 36 dash in a 30 coupe, only my light switch knob is anodized dark brown.
Kinda styled after a 40 coupe dash knob.
Of course I've been trying to get a matching choke knob for mine that's in Bobs catalog.
I know you won't believe this, but it's been back ordered for two years.

Jim, I agree with Ralph. I am sure that I have seen these at SoCal. Bill

You can also find those on e-Bay. Just type in "aluminum dash knob" on a search. I put a set in my 41 pickup. They attach with a set screw. they look like the So-Cal knobs at half the price.

I used '49 Ford style knobs on my '36 coupe, then used '49 Ford door handles to carry the theme off..
From the attached pix you will note that my dash is chromed.. That was the hot setup in the mid '50's..
