Thanks Bob. Yes I should have caught a couple things before responding. The word sketch and Simon’s reference to the inside cover being inscribed with the car information.  My brain told me that there was a printed reference to the car shown on the cover. Wrong again. Also I should have pulled my copy of the Haynes manual off the shelf before responding. The wood dash is well beyond 16610.
