Re: My 66 GMC LWB

I found some time today to work on the gauges. I was not happy with the gauge decal kit I got from Classic Parts, so I made my own

I wanted to do something different, but keep the original look to some extent. Instead of the factory white letters on black, I decided to black letters on tan to match my interior. I think it looks awesome with the black bezel. What do you think?

























I painted the backplates for the fuel and temp gauges and they need to cure. I should have it done on Tuesday since I will be home watching the roofer's install a new roof on the house.

More pics to come



Tony
