[Request] 78-82 Center Gauge Cluster
Would someone please post pics of their center gauge clusters? I especially would like to see those repainted/repaired or new with a good close-up view. Thanks, in advance!!! :)

Sorry, no digital camera. What are you looking for? With the exception of the '82 CEs, the clusters are the same. Black plastic with chrome edges (CEs are dark brown.). The bolt heads are non-functional. There are two bezels: one with the clock and one with the oil temp gauge. You got the oil temp gauge if you ordered the optional stereo which has a clock built in it.

My personal choice for almost all Corvette trim is Krylon semi-flat black. Straight out of the can and off the shelf at Wal-Mart. It's good quality paint, it's easy to use, and it's cheap. It's a near perfect match.
