I'm looking for information on the center console gauges. It looks to me that they have not changed the design, as it was done for the dash gauges.
What I found is that when the bumper changed to the rubber bumper the dash gauges changed also. Any info would be great. Thanks Engelbert |

center console gauges were all the same 73-76 except for the scale on the temp gauge, the put the red zone higher so people would not get scared from the early needle going into the red same gauge and sending unit other than that. Console even had the same smooth grain vinyl on it through they years even though the seat vinyl changed in 75
