Art & Inspiration The Mother Of all Dash/Gauge Threads!!!

The '49-'50 Olds cluster digitized by Dakota Digital.

 

My 34 Chevy with a 40 Ford deluxe dash.

 

My Dash

 

'60 to '62 Chrysler Astradome Electroluminescent.

Predating digital gauges, high voltage caused the numerals of the gauges themselves to "glow" or light up. Steering wheel appears to be attached to it because this gauge panel was integrated with and surrounded the steering column. Not an issue with the automatic transmission dash mounted push button shifter, but the factory three speed stick shift '61 Newport convertible I had in high school had a delicate wirelike shifter handle with a plain black ball on top snaking out of the transmission tunnel around the bench seat because of it.

 

Here's a 29 and 32 roadster dashes to take an Auburn instrument panel situated in the vehicles.

Ain't much, but it's gettin there. 55 Chevy truck dash gauges. 3 down, 3 to go.

 

Here is mine. I'm not sure what it's out of, maybe a truck? The spedo says FORD if that helps.

 

Never claimed to be the first one to use Drum Wrap, but I did this a few years ago before it was as popular.

 

not all that great.. hell I don't even like it and I built it !!!!!!!!!
Pontiac Slim

 

nice lookin dash...all business

 

Did you by any chance happen to by those from a guy named Nelson in Amarillo, TX?

 

Not sure it was a couple years ago when I got them. Update though, they are going in my '35 now instead of my '54!!! At least that's the plan.

 

Ah, all right. Sorry if it seemed random.. I'll send you a PM explaining why. I think you'll understand.

 

Here's mine:

 

That's one hell of a stereo system ya got there

1940 Lasalle gonna sit in my Mercury 39

 

Here's a pic of the Terraplane Cluster and Bezel we put in my brothers 32. When we took it apart to clean it up, all the gauges and speedo were Stewart Warner. We didn't paint it like that, the car was sold and painted by the new owner.

 

heres one i made

 

I think I seen this one on epay a couple of weeks ago. Really nice dahs! I have a '39 CLuster and while I don't have any plans for it I do love it!!!

 

Yes its a real nice loocking dash ,I buy it here on hamb of phatcaddy

 

Please guys just no Porpois gauges. Find a killer looking instrument cluster from a Buick or something else and let us convert it to work with whatever drivetrain u decide to use. It might cost a little more then some SW's but it will look way cooler and people will actually think that you are Rad cuz your og gauges actually work properly! www.redlinegaugeworks.com (661) 259-8891 ask for Shannon
