RockStock,
That dash is in my '54. I'm currently stripping the bus back to its original paint and the original paint on the "deluxe" part of the dash is a spot-on match to the original paint on the rest of the bus (the light tan color). I have every reason to believe that this was delivered from the factory this way. Some day I'll probably get the birth certificate and see if it mentions this. There is no evidence of any ambulance divider ever having been in this bus--just the deluxe dash.

Is that a later radio in the pod? I thought BD's would have radios more like Split Bugs?
Thanks, just curious.
