Re: John Covans Thunder Road Guage Panels!

Just a note on John Covans stuff, the Carbon Fiber "look" pieces look like crap. It's very fakey looking and just cheap. I sent the one that I purchased for a 64 GTO back to him in exchange for a black one.

You can order it with or without Auto Meter Gauges.

Summit also sells it.

It seems to be a descent piece... seemed a little flimsy for holding all the gauges but probably isn't. The GTO dash is a much bigger piece then the Camaro one.

Rewiring the interior isn't too bad.This is the way mine looked

I have the fakey carbon fiber Covan dash plate. I went with Auto-Meter Phantom II's. I figure if I get tired of the carbon fiber look it's easy enough to scuff and paint.

Actually without the camera flash lighting it up the carbon fiber doesn't show up real good when installed in the dash.
