Pics of Vintage Air Gen IV Proline controls? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

As the title states I'm looking for some installed pics of the Vintage Air Proline controls. I know they have the stock cable conversion a/c controls, but I'm wondering what the "3 knob" Proline set up looks like. I'm leaning towards the black anodized one since my truck is going to be painted a metallic gray color and most (almost all) of my interior bits are black anodized. I'm even considering the black anodized version of the rectangular "3 lever" Gen IV just to do something different.

Opinions welcome and of course post up some pics!

Adam, As an additional option, I understand Dakota Digital makes a real slick control panel for vintage air. A little speedy but very nice. Lee

The Dakota VHX controls are pretty slick! I'm not sure if the digital look would clash with my analog gauges. That's kind of why I'm not sure about using the rotary knob Vintage Air controllers. Here are some pics of a few of my interior pieces. I want to have an updated interior, without ruining the 'old truck' vibe. I'm not getting crazy with the upholstery either, as I'll be recovering the '72 door panels I have, putting in some charcoal colored carpet and black seats with a charcoal french seam.

I here ya, I went with the stock AC controller conversion to keep in line with my stock interior.

I'm interested in this as well. I'm up to that point in my 68. Adam where did you get your instrument panel and gauges from. I'm in need of that type of clock. That's a nice setup for the dash. Are you getting a black steering column as well?

I have a Flaming River brushed stainless tilt column. I will probably paint it a semi gloss black to match the wheel, with the rest of the metal in the interior painted to match the exterior of the truck.

The gauges are made by Classic Instruments, I got them from '55 Bel Air Tim' - a member here. Here is his site: http://timssuspensiononline.com/
