Custom auto-meter & alum. Dash set

This is a dash set that I made for a project that is not going to be completed. I bought these gauges in 2002 & put this instrument panel together for one of my "no holds barred-best of everything" projects. They are auto-meter all mechanical ultra lite gages that have never been installed. The panel has a custom made 1/8" thick aluminum overlay and a glove box door overlay to match that is over a powdercoated perfect door. It's attached with stainless button head allen bolts. I had rings for bezels made for the 160 mph speedo. & 10,000 rpm tach & powdercoated clear. The gauges are speedo.,tach.,oil press., water temp., trans temp. Gas , & voltmeter. The gauges alone were over $550 in 2002 dollars. I had a ball milled ashtray front bezel (that I was going to epoxy on) & a ball milled aluminum radio bezel. (it will also cover up a hacked dash).(they are 1/16 alum.) I have almost $400 in one off aluminum not including powdercoating. Every thing is new & never hooked up, & I have all the sending units & related hardware, & even have the boxes the gauges came in. I've got within pennies of $1000 invested in this stuff. It's one of a kind & you'll probably never see another one like it. I need $800 securely shipped, priority,w/a buttload of insurance with a tracking # or you pay & arrange the shipping & email me the label & have it picked up here for $750.Thats about 75 cents on a 2002 dollar. The first one to say "I'll take it" gets it. No majical lines here. Thanks John
