look at new inst. panel

I ordered an instrument panel from DOCSKUSTOM.com Well actually called.
You should really take a look at this panel. Quality and help was the best I've ever had. Oh and their shop project is a 68' SWB Chevy. It is set up for Autometer gauges. I did spend a little extra to have the lower gauges aligned.

You can do the same thing with a stock panel

I thought about a modified stock dash, but I dont like a 5 inch fuel gauge or the tach in the middle. Well at least now my gas gauge will work and speedo will quit bouncing around like a rabbit on crack. just my .02

The base price is $190. The custom alignment was $75 more.

Re: look at new inst. panel

Sorry forgot to mention that they have a nice down to earth store. It was nice to actually see everything prior to placing my order. Not to mention thay are just outside of Moultrie, Ga (Ga's largest car show and swap meet) Nov.18-20, 2011
