1.If you put your location details in your posts, I might be able to help.
2. It will be much easier to supply the right photos, if we knew what your carrier was.

This is for my scratchbuilt MkII carrier I'm building. Maybe I should have posted the request in that thread might have saved some confusion. I apologize for any confusion.... Harold

Here is a picture from the service manual Ford produced in 1941 for the Canadian Department of National Defence. It's not very good, but might help.

Harold, I assume by the hat badge that you are not far from the county. If so we are not too far apart.
I can lend you a NOS carrier dash that is complete with all gauges and switches if that helps.

Barry I need pics for a 1/6th scale carrier not a real full size carrier. Not sure where Castleton is right off hand but I'm just west of Bancroft in Cardiff. I do know Greg Anderson but hard to connect with him he is busy alot of the time. My friend Jack just sold a Windsor carrier a few months ago and it wound up in Belleville

Harold, glad to see you are right in the center of "Hasty P" country. I was born in Bancroft. I will be going to the Legion in Coe Hill next Sunday for a meeting about the warrior day parade labour day weekend. I could meet you someplace if you want and you can take all the photos you want of the carrier dash. Castleton is the economic, agricultural and manufacturing heart of Ontario. It is about 20 K north of the 401 at the Big Apple, close to the Warkworth Prison.
Barry
