Re: 59 Apache - Lifelong obsession

I needed a break from all the rust repair so I decided to tackle a small project.

I wanted more of the gauges in my stock cluster to work. The first time I built the truck I ran a 3 gauge panel under the dash and only the temp gauge worked. I had seen a few threads where guys had used the stock face with updated internals, so I decided to take this a step further and find a set of gauges that had a face and needle sweep that complemented my stock cluster but gave me more detail than the stock 3 dots. I found this Autogage by Autometer 3 gauge set that looked like it would work.



I gutted the volt and mechanical oil pressure gauges down to just the internals and the faces with my Dremel, and fit it to my original cluster. Amp meter is now a volt meter and the old oil pressure gauge was replaced with the Autogage one.
