Nope, I like them too. My ap. guy says he can make one just like it. But we'll see. I never saw a price, did you?

I sent them an e-mail a while back and they said it was going to be a few months until they are ready. Turns out others had checked on them over a year ago and got the same answer. Price was $400-500 if I remember right. Do a search and you'll find probably 5 or 6 posts about them.

I don't care for the "shelf" look on top. The idea of having the gauges up there is cool but with a gauge bezel that already has 7 openings, you might not need 3 more.

Gotta have air/fuel, fuel pressure and nitrous pressure!!!!

*67Fleetsidedream* · 10-07-2003, 01:20 PM

I likem. Kind of expensive though.

1. Oil pressure
2. fuel gauge
3. Volts
4. Tranny Temp
5. oil temp
6.Vacuum
7. air/fuel ratio
8. water temp
9. speedo
10. tach
11.water pressure
12. ammeter
13. fuel pressure

Here are a few that I wouldn't mind to use, not all at the same time or in the same truck....... I bet there are some more....

bigvinnie · 10-07-2003, 02:35 PM

water pressure...??? You puttin' out fires or what?

DanoDMano · 10-07-2003, 04:52 PM

Lets see...... front disc brakes or dash pad???

A no brainer for me. Looks nice, but $400-500???

IMO

Ok, thats one that I would not use. But it goes to show how many gauges you could use and put in the dash pad.

Don't forget the clock

Just called them. Still not ready for shipment, another couple of weeks. $395 + shipping for black.

Yeah, right. I think there idea of a few months is over a year and a couple weeks will be February next year. I don't know why the time keeps getting backed up but an honest answer would be nice for once. (I know there is issues producing something but this is the same thing they have been saying for close to a year and a half.)

it was in custom classic trucks a couple issus ago as wella s truckin.

72BLAZERDUDE · 10-07-2003, 09:42 PM

I would like to have a full depth dash pad without the guage pods though. Looks alot cleaner.

Injected68LS1 · 10-07-2003, 11:20 PM

I'd rather just have a 5" tach molded in! Don't forget the shift light!

Injected68LS1 · 10-07-2003, 11:20 PM

Oh yeah. Might as well have a gauge for tire pressures.

Lippyp · 10-08-2003, 05:37 AM

You missed boost gauge for those turbo inclined and altimeter for the pilots!
