Re: My new gauges arrived - Custom New Vintage USA

Looks great. Is there any way to clean up the chrome rings to match everything else in it's nice and shiny state

There isn't any easy way to get the plastic "rechromed" that I know of. Apparently Just Dashes in SoCal will re-do it, but I haven't confirmed that yet. I'm planning to get my original dash pad redone by them next month so I'll ask about this while I'm there.

Can I get some details on what they are doing and how much? I just checked their website and didn't see our pickups on there

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
