Hey Y'All,

I just joined and was reading the posts, I have recently finished my truck. It is a 1965 Short Wide, I really don't know why but I love this "pain in the tush" thing. I have owned it since I ETS'd from the Army in 1989. I have replaced every bolt,washer,nut and bushing on it. It runs a 1966 327/400 combo, has pwr steering/brakes/windows and A/C. I have replaced the wood, bed strips etc. It is 1966 CHevy White, solid without the trim. redone int.

The only problem I have is those guages from the factory, I cant seem to get them to be accurate or work at all, does someone have an idea there with out killing the bank? I can get a rebuilt one for $500.00 but that is way over my budget, I could go with aftermarket but like it to at least look original.
