Re: Task force gauges
Nice looking gauges. BTW you might want to put you phone on a charger

Re: Task force gauges
I think I saw this gauge set on Rods n Wheels on Discovery channel the other night. They were restoring a 56 for some chick.

Re: Task force gauges
Interesting looking gauge set. On the price It may compare pretty close to a decent set of round gauges and a dash insert for a custom dash price wise. I've been pricing gauge sets for my 48 with a 5 inch speedometer and four smaller gauges and the total gets up there.

Re: Task force gauges
I looked at these before buying the New Vintage gauge cluster. Prices are around the same. I could find any new vintage reviews but took a chance and they have that vintage look but work and look great. I just got them in so I will update down the road. Also running the gps module on the speedo so let's see how this plays out in the future

Re: Task force gauges
i could have used that 140mph speedo during power tour 2012
 i have to ask why though, new speedo is $99 individual gauges are less, chances are most of yours work as is check out my instrument cluster rebuild in my build thread i converted the amp gauge to a volt gauge for $15

Re: Task force gauges
Looked it up.
www.newvintageusa.com "Fuel is available in original 0-30, 0-90 or 240-33." I read most of the site and see no reference to GPS module for the speedo.

Nicer layout, a 120 mph speedo and gauges with better graduations. Also, I don't know about New Vintage but from what I've read about Classic Instruments, they aren't that reliable.
