If your offer is good to everyone I could use a new speedo housing, I cut mine up trying to make something else work. Didn't work.

The gauges for your '53 are sweet. Where did you get those at? Is the speedo electronic?

I needed a speedo and tach so this set fit the bill!
They have different sending units for the speedo depending on which transmission you are running, I have a 4L 60 E and there was a Dakota Digital sender that was matched with the speedo.
I understand now that they offer a speedo that is powered by a GPS so you have nothing to hook up!!
