Re: Custom Gauges
I would have went with some 5" gauges for the tach and speedo but otherwise looks good

Re: Custom Gauges
Good looking gauge set up.
Agree...too bad no one makes one for the Firebirds.
Have you thought about approaching Covans Classic with the idea?

Re: Custom Gauges
Aluminum may work, but take it from a truck driver aluminum WILL eventually begin to rattle something fierce. Most of the old freightliner panels are aluminum and the rattling is terrible. I would stay away from it personally.

Re: Custom Gauges
I dunno....I like the concept, just not that layout.
When viewed from the driver's seat...The 3 1/2 gauges on the left....Just doesn't do it for me.
