My restored GMC gauges....

Well since a couple of my cabs came with the GMC dashes I decided to experiment and restore a set of gauges. Here's the final product, I changed out both lights on the bottom to green and was gonna use them as turn signal lights. Not sure what I'm going to do with them since I don't have a use for them, just bored I guess.

Looks great! very utilitarian, but classy. Was the hammer finish original?

I believe it was on this set of gauges as this was from a work truck 1.5 ton.

Re: My restorded GMC gauges....

What year did this cluster come from? Just curious about the water temp gauge as I have not seen the word "Normal" on one before.

Here is mine, with factory tach.

I wasn't trying to sell them, I said I DID sell them already. They can't be for sale because I no longer own them, geez......
