You're on the same fence I've been on a few times- originality vs. adequate replacement. I've gone with originality, and have the receipts to show for it

I just ordered a new ammeter and the guage cluster has scratches around the seat belt warning light override button and the upper wiper switch has a crack on the right side where the cluster is weakest. Maybe I'll weld it from the back and paint it.

I don't get it??i believe the 68's were "real" narrow in the middle as compared to all later C-3's, correct? the true "coke bottle corvette". owners complained the seating area was "too tight" and doors interfered with seating comfort. Chevy widened 69's by at least a couple of inches, i think. forum members comment please.
