    I will be doing the in dash tach install like some others on here. Here is the Tach Face I will be using. I came up with the idea last night and my nephew printed it for me this morning.

    It is one of those mini tach's that will be mounted in the blank space, on the left side right under the fuel gauge.

    Gotcha! Im sure it will be vry nice. If I had not restored mine last year I wud be inclined to go this route. Got to much tied up in the Auto Meters now.

    BTW: What happened to the Eileen Maverick? I like that one - a lot.

    Heres a speedometer gauge my nephew started making for me today. I know the numbers are not in order. He's fixing them tonite. The steer head will be cut out and used as the high beam indicator

    Did you have to have your speedometer recalibrated, or can you just re-position the needle?
