I agree, its a gauge pod for over the drivers side ac ball.

Primered_69 · 09-30-2007, 10:17 PM

Maybe to fit a tach in a console (mimicking the one in your Chevelle?)

Primered_69 · 09-30-2007, 10:18 PM

Fitting tweeters where the old a/c ball used to go??? Or putting an air gauge where the old a/c ball went???

ChevLoRay · 09-30-2007, 10:24 PM

If it was on my school bus, I'd say some kid left it there....

It looks good and I'm sure it will do a good job...at whatever it does. The flat back paint looks right. I don't know that a glossy finish would have been right.

dan42 · 09-30-2007, 10:33 PM

...A speaker mount for the corner of the cab???

I have to go now and talk to some pan-dimensional mice about an ultimate computer to calculate what that thing is!

Ok What Is It Already?

**SactoJim** · 09-30-2007, 10:42 PM

Don't know if it's just the pic angle or not but the first one looks different than the second.....yes or no?

**SactoJim** · 09-30-2007, 10:47 PM

Does it sit on the trans hump?

Rokcrln · 09-30-2007, 11:36 PM

Ok sorry it took so long for me to get back to you all.
Yes it is a guage pod for over the drivers A/C ball so I can get rid of the fugley guage mount under my A/C controls. I put a 2 1/16" trans guage in this one so I can keep an eye on my new tranny.

What do you think?

Here is the hole needed to fit the guage here.

Sorry the pics are so small but I am not at home untill next friday and had to pull these off an e-mail I had sent out before I left for the work week.

it looked like a huge coathanger, like for my cowboy hat

earl87gta · 10-01-2007, 03:17 AM

that looks cool but I think i would paint it to match the color of the truck

**special-K** · 10-01-2007, 05:19 AM

Great idea.I put a trans temp gauge in the vacuum guage (blank) pod.

Yep it will match the interior when I paint the truck.

I have a cluster from a c50 or somthing and my vac is an air psi guage that is tied into my rear air bags for towing. So I made this out for fiberglass to tuck out of the way as much as I can to keep a clean interior look to the truck.

I like the pod.It blends with the air outlet.

a beacon light holder that serves no purpose
or a huge clearance light

Jim_PA · 10-02-2007, 01:38 PM

Looks pretty good. I liked the dash mount thing someone posted the other day better though.
