    Alchemy - Looks really nice!! I like the way you made a great looking instrument panel design even better by redesigning it slightly and also making it fit the '32 dash.

    Count me in for one, something else for the cars or trucks will just have to wait.

  6. I Think its Perfect! I'd Run 2-Stewart Warner 2-3/8's Duplex Gauges! Then
    Auburn 120 MPH Speedo & Auburn
    8 Grand Tach! Duplex Gauges are a
    Little Hard To Find. But, I've manage
    To find 6-Pairs over the Years. Perfect for Stock 32 & 33 Ford Dash!

    Great work. I like the Pierce one a lot but the new one really does need to fit within the '32 dash beading. I'd be OK with only 5 guages.

    I've got two (maybe three, gotta look) all polished and ready to go with the plain aluminum insert. They are "introductory priced" at $275 plus shipping.

    Hello, are you still making the gauge panel, if so, I am looking for a 6 hole panel like the one above. I prefer to by from someone who makes them.
    It will be used in a 1927 T sedan.
    Thanks.

    Alchemy - can you message me about Pierce Arrow dash/gauges? I have a Model A hot rod - it appears to be an early sixties rebuild using '32 chassis and fenders and it may have been a SoCal highboy in the late '40's before that. It has a unique dash insert from a 1933/34 Pierce Arrow (see photos). I'm new to this, so anything you know about other cars that used this dash back in the day would be helpful to potentially ID this car's history. Thanks!

    It's nice to see that there are still craftsman around who can perform such beautiful, meticulous work
    of such high quality. Can't help but wonder if you took high school shop classes when you were in school.
    Be sure to pass on your knowledge to others, otherwise it's lost.

    Yes that is one of my panels. The owner showed me a pic a couple months ago, but made me keep it under wraps until the car's debut. I think it's probably the most exotic treatment given to one of my panels.

    @alchemy are you going to make any more of those panels? I wouldn’t mind picking up a second one.
