Wootdog · 11-17-2004, 06:45 PM

Nice. I like the white faced gauges. Found out the factory tach I bought on the parts board is toast. Kerry

Wootdog -- PM NeCrOmAnCeR, he is pretty handy with tachs, he can probally get it going for you again...

Super Duck · 11-18-2004, 05:26 PM

look like auto meter for the tach and eng stuff and stock with white faces on the speedo and furl. I like it dude

72MARIO · 11-18-2004, 06:51 PM

Sweet, I love thoes rip off Auto Meter Gauges. I kinda felt like a goof buying gauges at Wal Mart .I have them in my 84 C20 and they work really good. I though I would be the only guy to buy them . I am planning on getting the tach in the next week or so could you let me know how it hooks up and if it works well ?. make sure you keep the water temp line away from the headders try and get in into the water neck.

You can buy gauges at Wal Mart there?? Luck dogs. Nothing like that here.

72MARIO · 11-18-2004, 07:09 PM

Yep in the crappy auto spot they just started carrying them mabye 2 months ago max. they were like $50 for the water volts and oil and the tach is $80 or so.

5150 · 11-18-2004, 07:45 PM

The brand of gauges are iequus. I like the big numbers on them.

Hey Meathead- Not yet. I'm dying to get it back. I talked to the guy who took it down to the NADC and he stated that he went to a convention in Las Vegas last week or so and when he got back he wasn't happy with the rust work under the bed and the steps. He apparently made them do it over. He told me that he hopes to put paint on it next week and lay out the ghost flames after Thanksgiving. I'm dying with impatience. He got my hopes up by telling me the students wanted to have it done by the 15 of Oct. So now I got my new parts I've ordered and I get to look at them drool.

thanks for asking I'll keep you guys posted.

Good looking guages I have never seen good looking guages like those at wall-mart.....

5150 · 11-22-2004, 12:01 AM

I didn't get them at Wally World. I got them off ebay.

MadDog · 11-22-2004, 01:52 AM

I made a set of inserts on photoshop for an old jeep of mine once. I just taped them in place. They actually came out pretty good. The only problem i had was after about 6 months one of them started to fold a bit.
