custom dash!

[dbmx66]

so the other day being the clumsy person i am, i tripped over my driveshaft on the ground and fell and broke my dash pad. so i decide to take/cut the metal out that the dash pad bolts to. and start from scratch. so i made a blue print for a custom .125 inch thick 7075 aluminum sheet metal dash. it come 8.5 inches back from the windshield and 8.5 inches down.i made the basic shape already, just have to cut/grind where the windshield is curved and where it bolts to each side of cab. and cutouts for steering column and gauges, still working on the sides of it tho.

im going to buy new gauges too. i'll i want to put is a oil pressure, volts, temp, speedometer, and 5inch racing tach. the tach will be mounted on top of the dash but the rest will be.

what are cheap, but still reliable gauges i should get? thanks, david
