Hi,
I'm new here. I just picked up a 71 & 74 rollers in Tucson, AZ. The 71 has VDO gauges with green needles, including the center console. Does anyone have any idea how/why the needles would be green? The car looks like it was originally yellow. I also found a small notebook in the car that indicates it was picked up in Pensacola in December 1991. I'll try to attach a couple pics of the car and the gauges. Thanks, Mike  |

I am also doing a 73 subie conversion in Laveen Az. Not too far from you. Shoot me a PM if you want to see my build sometime and/or hear about my challenges. Assuming you are not paying the professionals to do your conversion for you. |
