Something about a old car with fancy guagues just doesnt sit right with me
I mean if you want em to look like autometer Then buy those? Imho the old crusty bouncey smuged foggy guagues are part of the charm of these cars . Shout out to the cheap sob (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) If i re-did mine id go with a avaiation type theme Like ww1 stuff . But im sure that would get expensive |

They're still the old original style gauges, Timothy just adds decent LED lighting to them - much appreciated by those of us with aging eyeballs ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) Besides making them look new, the increased brightness is a real safety feature. My lights were so dim I can recall having to look down several times to see the gauges. A work of art!   |

I'll post a pic tonight when it's dark but Tim fixed my lights by making them work, fixed the tach and speedo, added BRIGHT lighting and they look new again. Best buy on the car.
