Would love to see what you've done with your aftermarket speedo, tach and guage clusters.

TimAT

Early S-W gauges. The Speedo and Tach are about to go back to the original factory gauges.

My 69 was an early modded car it had a big blower sticking out the hood and a boost vaccum gauge where the clock would be...
I have in the boxes blue digital generic round gauges i might run...might sell who knows

This is in my 1978. I used an early C3 panel because the holes for the gauges are already round unlike the later C3's.

Gages in my 74

Not a close up. Autometer Sport Comp. Also removed all the black on the gauge cluster and console.

Very sweet down to business racy look you have going there.

Nice pictures, but can you list the manufactures of the gauges you've installed?

I needed an electronic speedometer after my T56 trans swap, so I just replaced mine with a Speed/ Tach digital combo from Autometer. I just did the one 3 1/2" gauge in cobalt blue. Maybe one of these days I'll do the whole set.

Sacred Steel

Auto meter Sport Comp.

autometer Z series at night because it matched the best, and the wideband AFR gauge on the upper right is a sport comp and I painted the bezel black to match the Z series.
apparently they don't make a wideband air fuel gauge in the Z series.


edit** here is a daytime pic... and anyone wondering about the bluetooth mic... it is impossible to hear anyone with the car on, not even sure why I plugged it in lol.

ALL of these installations look great!

Personally, I am not a fan of the look of the aftermarket gauges. They are certainly better/more accurate but they never seem to me to really belong. Let me suggest another possibility, that of designing your own gauge face on PowerPoint (or whatever) that looks factory. In the end, I just wanted to get the car back together so I didn't change the two new gauges I added. But if you just have some parameter that you want to see and are happy with the rest of the gauges, look at suppliers that have alternate faces and make one of your own. Best would be printed on some kind of thin card stock, I never got to that point, but would think it to be feasible. I don't know what to say about the needles, as I said, I didn't go any further. I would probably have looked at sourcing them from scrap original gauges.

ignatz I like your ipod placement!!

'71 Vert, how did you remove the black off those trim pieces? it looks good like that.
Mine need refinishing never thought about going that route.

$20 or so for White Gauges overlay. They really look cool at night because I have all new blue LED's for them
