Mudder, I like your whole setup. Looks great. And, what is the size and manufacturer of that new steering wheel?

Oh....just a couple hours with a Dremel Tool and some creative wiring. Not too bad. I have it down to a science now!?!!??

Hello Mrhino
where did you get that gauge cluster really like that

Mudder · 01-01-2011, 06:08 PM

The steering wheel is a Grant and I just know it is a little smaller than a Camaro wheel. And thank you.

CG · 01-01-2011, 06:20 PM

A better straight on picture and a little info on the start button. I usually just like a plain ol stock looking cluster but yours looks to have some neat upgrades.

chewychevy67 · 01-01-2011, 06:29 PM

a few from my collection of pictures. a factory 67 68 choke delete tach vacuum speed warning and a factory kilometer speedometer with tach and vacuum. last is a mexican truck gauge cluster.

I tried to get you a straight on shot but due to steering wheel I just couldnt get a good one. The start stop button is off a 2011 Hyundai Sonata. Its wired into my GPS alarm. It will only work when one of the buttons on the remote is pressed. I hardly ever use it start the truck, I use the remote starter most of the time. I do use it to turn off the truck all the time... Im having some trouble with my GPS alarm and was told to send it back for a upgrade. But I really dont want to go back and rewire all that it took 4 days of wiring to install everything....
For some reason one of the pics wouldnt load, let me try again..

Thanks! the dash is a Covan's Classic. and the gauges are Classic Instruments "All American Series" I Put it a 5.3L and used all Electrical gauges to work with the Computer. Amber, blue, red LED's for turn signals, brights and check engine light.

Great looking Cluster tonypaul. Iv seen it before, and it impresses me every time.

CG · 01-05-2011, 12:10 AM

Lots of great clusters here but I keep coming back to the one with the button. Been thinking about that start stop button. I think it would be a really good idea to have that button hooked directly to your alarm system.

Thief breaks into your truck and you just know he is going to push that button ... Hmm, whats this? *push* ALARM ALARM ALARM!!!

I think Ive mentioned it before, you could do the same thing with one of those giant EASY buttons. Someone gets in your rig and you have one sitting on the seat, those things are impossible to ignore *push* =)

Where can I get one of those overdrive gear selector indicators I see in your column?

Putter · 01-02-2011, 02:59 PM

Here are mine, GMan69 and HartRod's clusters that I set up.

Those are nice. That's what I'm looking for. How do I get one?

tdp67 · 01-12-2011, 12:56 PM

Here's mine that came with it. I like the guages but not the panel. I want a more stock looking panel with these guages.

Putter, I really like the particular cluster and gauges with the fuel level gauge in the middle. Where did you get those gauges, and if you can recall, what size are they?

69sixpackbee · 01-02-2011, 03:27 PM

Mine

Andy4639 · 01-02-2011, 03:52 PM

Nothing fance, just a stock dash made by me. Bought a whole dash out of a junk yard with the tach and guages. Traded my orignal dash for a dash with the speed warning in it.

It is a user set dial on the speedo (white needle) that you set to a specific speed and then a buzzer will sound when you meet that MPH.

I see your speed warning is set for 100. I'd like to be warned too if I'm going 100.
