Not totally certain, Ken, but I think Ford used available stock initially, which would have been civilian market stuff, all chromed and painted. As that stock was exhausted, they went to the none fancy versions.

I have seen early, rectangular instrument panels, for both Fords and Chevs, also show up chromed and overpainted, but the vast majority had no chrome. Probably also civvie stock getting used up first.
