Uhh...what is that??? At first I thought that bezel had started life as an original and had some bondo or fiberglass (etc) added. After looking further I'm thinking it is aftermarket or handmade or something. Either way I LIKE IT! Any more information on that bezel would be greatly appreciated.

The 1st picture are the Gauges I bought off a guy who specializes in them, on E-Bay, back in 2000. I installed some colored 1
#194 Bulbs and it was real nice to look at.

The next 2 are Autometer Pro Comp Lite Gauges, that came in my 72 GMC when I aquired it. I just ordered an Billet Aluminum Gauge Cluster from
"Doc's Kustoms" in a Brushed Finish with LED Signal/Hi-Beam lights and matching Billet Windshield/Wiper Knobs.

I bought the ones you're talking about on ebay. I don't have the tach dash though but they look awesome. Just don't get the purple bulbs.

**El Jay** · 02-01-2010, 03:57 AM

Here's mine.
They were in the truck when I bought it.

Thats a billet dash that I bought here:

Thanks for your praise! It's going to look sweet with the edge polished & the center done up in that black wrinkle paint.
Ryan made them on his sweet CNC machines it fits like a glove. For some reason the thread is locked, but I'm sure you could still get one & if you want, the matching glovebox door from him.

Here is mine. Not installed yet but they are Phantom white face.

I don't care for the white. Perhaps it is because of the AC controller. I like that 'whited' out next to the white gauges.

Here's mine. I went with an aftermarket tach and installed an 80's quartz clock I picked out of a yard for $5. Measure twice then heat up a nail to make the hold for the clock adjusting knob.

Another thing I messed with a few years ago was a speedo out of a 1971 Monte Carlo. The Monte was an auto so it had the cut-out for the PRNDL2L1 indicator. The speedo fits in the truck cluster. You could probably find one from a 4-speed car without the cut-out. The truck speed numbers come off the truck plastic with plastic polish and a little elbow grease. If you spend your time north of 100 mph perhaps you'll need the Monte speedo in there.

Just some options...

bigguy69 · 02-01-2010, 10:08 AM

I also like the ryan hubbard panel does he still sell them?

**67cheby** · 02-01-2010, 10:42 AM

somewhere in that link that was posted, is a number or a website to contact him. he can also change it if you like, the only problem i have is the headlight switch isn't centered but shouldn't be a big deal im just gonna bore the hole a little bit the plastic chrome washer should cover just fine.

el_gureo · 02-01-2010, 12:53 PM

Here’s he one I’m working on. I installed a PSI gauge for my air ride. I will probability be changing out the bezel with a manual choke one.

Just curious I found a speed warning speedeo the other day. How much would something like that be worth?

These gauges are awesome! I would love to see the back to see how you pulled it off.

dauntless_powered · 04-28-2010, 04:10 PM

Man there are some nice dashes here, I stumbled on this thread looking for ideas for a tach in the tach spot, I don't have one in there, and finding factory orig is proving hard to find without giving up your first born.

Trip59 · 04-28-2010, 04:21 PM

I bought an Autometer that has the same sweep range as the lines on the dash, I'm going to be putting it in place before too long, the needle comes off easy to pull the modern face, I'm going to just flip it and paint it black and mount it up. Recalibration has proven easy with another tach on hand (I used my dwell meter), just takes a couple tries.

hvychvydriver · 04-28-2010, 10:00 PM

hello quick question where or who did you purchase this dash from

tdp67 · 04-29-2010, 12:57 AM

These were there when I bought it. Like the Dolphin guages, not the plastic panel. Will replace soon.
