What's the trick to touching up the white on the face plates of the smaller gauges? Mine's got a rusty look to them and I was wondering how to fix them.

Gene · 06-29-2003, 09:46 AM

Heres my original.

Mudder · 06-29-2003, 12:04 PM

Thanks to some guys here on the board that came up with this idea. Have to say it rates up there with the 33gallon Blazer tank and the 3/4 ton disks.

That is just what I am looking at doing

I bought a gauge bezel and guts at Carlisle this past weekend for $10 and am going to mess with adding the Autometer gauges. Did you have to do much modification to get those gauges in there?

Here is my plain-jane stocker
