Re: Picked up a 71 chevy today

Re: Picked up a 71 chevy today
thanks all, took the gauges out tonight and cleaned them up replaced all the bulbs, repainted the needles, and did the bezel behind the numbers white just to change it up some, i can always change it later if i get tired of it. also install a new temp sensor.

Re: Picked up a 71 chevy today
Gauges look awesome bro, and buffing it totally changed the color and look of the truck. It's an amazing difference in person.
