Re: NJ Suburban

This weeks project: the cluster. Touched up the chrome with a silver paint pen, repainted the semi black, polished the lens (400-5000 grit then polish) and added a tach from a Camaro as outlined by Grincoloco in the truck forum. All I need is the needle paint and I can pack it up for when it's time to install it!

It’s been a while since I looked at your build thread. You are doing great work! I love the tach upgrade. Congrats on building a shop!
