What goes/ went in these holes on the left side of the dash on Model TT Trucks? I have seen different pictures with them.
Thanks Mark

The holes may have been to mount a dispatch bin or clip.

Those holes are not stock Ford. I have seen trucks with a ashtray mounted on that side. No doubt many different things got mounted on that side.

These don't seem to have holes there.

My 26TT has an AC speedometer mounted right where your holes are, but it is attached with 4 small screws, not 2.

Those two hole are holders for #2 lead pencils so you have something available to sign the speeding tickets! :?
