I collected more than 100 dash layout pics Rog. I also have the original SC 427 and the 289 layout templates.
I wanted something that was associated with an original look. Another US original below. Stewart Warner gauges and speedo and tacho behind the wheel - perhaps not the best location for visibility.
It all depends on whether you want an 'old school' look or a modern layout. In some states they may have a thing about the types of switches as well.
