Re: Doug's Dream

I bought the dash from a former member on here, I believe you can get it through LMC now... I ordered all new autometer gauges separate believe me when I say not cheap$$$$ Definitely shop around and know what you are buying difference in mechanical, short sweep electric, to full sweep electric.
But Autometer is grade A gauges.

I will post if I find it again or something similar.

Re: Doug's Dream

*Update* Today I broke down the 72' Camper Special frame and hope to do the 4x4 conversion install tomorrow morning... finished making my shop table very stout, working on restoring some parts; pics are coming! I plan on making a separate thread on a complete how-to on the 4x4 conversion for anyone that is interested.
