Here's my original paint dash.
The knob above the ignition switch is the manual choke cable.
I would suggest getting the Bentley manual, it's got quite a bit of good Ghia specific technical information.

you need to state your VIN, or at least the month
ie fuel gauge added in late 57, knobs changed, st wheel, etc, etc
(where's Retro or Broady or OGR when you need them) _________________ -StockRocks-

from factory:
hole above radio wouldnt have been there
hole between clock & speedo wouldnt have been there
holes to left of speedo wouldnt have been there (look like the holes required for the accessory Dehne fuel gauge to me - one small for the locating pin, one larger for the cable to pass through) _________________ -StockRocks- |

Appears that you dash is setup for an optional Dehne fuel gauge, similar to mine.
