Show Off Those Guages
Let's see some pics of your guages. From the most custom of custom to a refreshed stock set. Let's see em all. I'll start it out with my blue stock ones. The pic is extremely hard to see due to a really cruddy camera and the fact that the blue bulbs are extremely dim but i tried.

Re: Show Off Those Guages
Had to put it there otherwise the shift indicator hits it. I do like it where it is I can still see all the gauges and it's a monster tach what's not to love!!!!!

Re: Show Off Those Guages
Great pictures!
I have a 1969 C10 in which the previous owner mounted Auto Meter gauges. I recently had to pull out the dash and discovered a RAT'S NEST of wires! Complete mess. Every gauge works, but there's a million miles of wires. I'd like to wire the gauges to a central connector so I can pull the dash and disconnect just one wire connector. Does anyone have pictures/instructions/etc for that? Thanks in advance! |

Re: Show Off Those Guages
Here's a few I've done with carbon fiber overlays, white faces, tachs, clocks, flames, etc..

Re: Show Off Those Guages
White overlays in my big '69 C-30 car hauler. Nothing fancy!

Re: Show Off Those Guages
How do you get the faces of the gauges different colors? I don't get the process?

Re: Show Off Those Guages
Yes. It's 3/4" birch plywood for the structure. And skinned with phenolic. I'm going to build a phenolic glove box cover, and a phenolic bezel piece to cover up the hacked out radio hole the PO cut. I'm on the fence as to weather or not it's gettting painted. I love the look of the phenolic, but it'd be the only brown in the interior. But I've got plenty of time to figure that out while I'm workin' on the rest of the truck. BTW, good eye! Jay
