    I found this on ebay. Looks to be a nice original Tux Park. However there are two "things" on the dash that stick back into the interior that I have no idea what they could be for. Any help/ideas from anyone?

    It also looks like the column shift is gone, if it ever had one..........Did they all have a column shift from the factory?

    :v6: = floor shift. The shifter appears to have a bent configuration. Mine is straight. I agree that the huge thing protruding from the dash looks like alight. Nice tux. Might have to get a red top for mine when it's done. Eeeee. That's gonna be tough to take.

    I learned something today.....only the 4 cylinders were column shift.........

    I agree it looks like it could be a light, but why would there be two? If you look closely, you can see another one between the steering wheel and the door.....dunno...

    I don't think they're lights because of the way they flatten out where they're attached to the dash. As flat as they are I don't think you could run wiring through them. JMO

    <light goes off in head> Ahhh! Could be purse hangers for your optional matching Tux Park purse. R)

    jpflat2a what's that noise?

    in the floor pics, you can see the stock mount for the gun
    in the pic it's hard to tell, but I believe the dash mounts are Y to accept the rifle barrel
    has to be gun mounts

    Certainly looks that way. It looks like a loop and a little catch to hold it together.
