Dashboards Have Always Fascinated Me

Dashes began to get more interesting in the later 50s. This is one from a 1958 Ford, featuring the curved overhang and the bubble at the steering wheel, a classic form that survives to today's cars.

Dashboards Have Always Fascinated Me

And here's one of those wonderful predictions of the "future" from (probably) the 60s. Notice the central console and the display screen. They were somewhat accurate in their concept. But the cool aircraft steering wheel design never caught on. The general structure design is decades ahead of what was in effect at the time.
