Re: Post your dashes & guage clusters

Mine is factory tach with a added speed warning buzzer. I also added the clock out of a later 70's truck.

Re: Post your dashes & guage clusters

The first is the cluster in my ramp truck. The bezel has been painted with balck polyurethane and had a Cheyenne Super woodgrain decal with white overlays. I used the white decals on the faces and on the tins (instead of painting the tins white) and sanded the letters and numbers off of the factory lens, and polished it out clear. I didn't care for the greenish looking letters against the white. Its a little different looking than most.

The second is the cluster that is going in my '67 C-30. It has a vacuum gauge a 4000 RPM diesel tach. I am going to put a woodgrain decal on it also, but I'm going to paint it with textured bedliner paint like I did on the glove box lid of my '69 C-10. Really different!

This is a look I want, too. I have a nephew who did some engine turning for his '79 T/A dash.

The look you got is what I hope to have. Maybe the same thing as an applique on the glove box door, too. I'll be using Mahanians' radio surround and I'm thinking it'll all look good when (ever) I'm done.

You have to disassemble the spedo. Not fun and not super easy but it can be done. Maybe someone on here has posted a thread on it. Do a search.

Re: Post your dashes & guage clusters

I will try to get a pic of mine. It came out of a C30 type truck and has the tach and a air PSI gauge where a vac gauge would be, between the column and oil PSI guage.
