Hi Tom,
Hope all is well it's been awhile since we last spoke.I'm getting ready to install a American autowire harness and seeing if you have any volt meter conversions for sale.
Thanks Brian

Hey Tom,

I tried to reply to your last PM but I keep getting this message:

TBONE1964 has chosen not to receive private messages or may not be allowed to receive private messages. Therefore you may not send your message to him/her.

If you are trying to send this message to multiple recipients, remove TBONE1964 from the recipient list and send the message again.

Any ideas??
Thanks, Steve

Hi Tom,
I tried to send a private message back to you last night but it wouldn't go through either thanks Brian

Re: Volt Gauge Conversion Kits
 

Have you done any of the 66 dash style conversions?

Re: Volt Gauge Conversion Kits
 

are you still making these?

Re: Volt Gauge Conversion Kits
 

I would like to buy one of these when you have one available. Thanks

Re: Volt Gauge Conversion Kits
 

Hey Guy's,

I will do volt gauge conversions but I need to find the gauges. As most of you know, it is the 76+ Chevy truck volt gauge I use for these.

If you have access or can find your own gauge, I can build a conversion for you if you send me the gauge.

I will start working on getting some more gauges. The problem is the price on the gauge is costing more so I am going to be charging more for the conversions. They are going to be more around $100.00 shipped now if I supply the gauge.

As far as the 60-66 volt gauge conversions, I can do those as well but the price will be $140.00. There is much more modifications to be done to the gauge tin to make them work. Also there is no "8-13-18" volt overlay for these like there is on the 67-72 conversions.

Thank you for the interest. Send me an email to tbonegarris@yahoo.com if interested.

Take care,
Tom

Hi Tom,
Email sent about conversion.

Re: Volt Gauge Conversion Kits
 

Just for clarification - What is the "Gauge Tin"? :)

Re: Volt Gauge Conversion Kits
 

The cluster has the main tin which you could call the main body of the cluster and it has the small tins that hold the gauges. The temp and amp gauge are in one tin and the oil and fuel gauge are in another tin. It is that "tin" that needs to be modified to accommodate a later style volt gauge.

Hope this helps,

Take care,
Tom

Re: Volt Gauge Conversion Kits
 

Tom do you have any of these ready to be shipped? either in the 67-72 or the 75+. I am not sure which one I want. i am leaning towards the 75+ but not sure of any modifications needed to fit it. Will i need to put my needle on it?

Re: Volt Gauge Conversion Kits
 

PM on the way.

Thank you,
Tom

Re: Volt Gauge Conversion Kits
 

Tom quick question. Have you ever thought about an overlay for the oil pressure gauge??? I would buy one if you had it!!! Just one similar to the voltmeter with numbers

Re: Volt Gauge Conversion Kits
 

I can check into it. The problem is the initial set up charge cost a lot. It worked out for the volt gauges because there was so much demand for them. Not so much on the oil pressure gauges.

I have considered doing electronic oil pressure gauge conversions but again, have not had much demand for them.

Take care,
Tom

Do you have just the voltmeter face decal for sale?

Re: Volt Gauge Conversion Kits
 

Sorry, I do not have any available to sell at this time.

Thank you,

Re: Volt Gauge Conversion Kits
 

What keeps the +12v from grounding out from the tin on the voltmeter?

Re: Volt Gauge Conversion Kits
 

The gauge itself has small insulators that keep the terminals from touching the tin. The way I supply voltage is the same way it is done by the factory only without the circuit board. I just tap into the 12V side of the temp gauge and piggy back it over the the 12V side of the volt gauge, add the ground, and all is good.

Yes it is possible if you are not careful to install the gauge incorrectly in the tin. At that point, things would start to get hot until the fuse popped.

Hope this answers your question,

Tom

Re: Volt Gauge Conversion Kits
 

Hello all,

I currently have enough gauges to build 2 conversion kits if anyone is interested.

They are $100.00 shipped.

Please ask any questions you have and thank you in advance for your continued business.

Take care,
Tom

Re: Volt Gauge Conversion Kits
 

I'll take one for my '72. Let me know how how you want payment.

Re: Volt Gauge Conversion Kits
 

PM on the way.

Thank you,
Tom

Re: Volt Gauge Conversion Kits
 

Payment sent.

Re: Volt Gauge Conversion Kits
 

I will take the 75+, for my 71
