    I just finished up the second unit. This one has a few improvements over the first one that is installed in my car.

    This one will be given away at the 6th Annual MCG National Gathering, July 19-21, Somerset, Ky.

    The face is the other type which allows the original aluminum center to show thru, used a carbon fiber shaft for the needle, and revised the mounting to the housing.

    I still have parts to build some of these up. Please PM if interested. I still have a little free time until I get my Fairlane back from paint.

    In case I didn't already reply to this thread, Jacks modified cluster is awesome. I'm glad I purchased mine and Jack is a great guy to deal with.
