Any Idea's, thought's, and comments are welcome and greatly appreciated you can contact me at kusstum@yahoo.com Thanks and have a great day! Donnie

    here's proto-type

    Ok I finished proto-type I have an appointment towards end of the month with CAD programer and plastic/fabricator. We will be discussing what materials to use and how much the cost is and time to produce the clusters. I did not do a final finish and paint as this is just for design and production purposes. Thank you for your input and comments.

    EVERYONE PLZ READ EVERYONE PLZ READ!!!!!!!
    IMPORTANT ABOUT DON KUSS, MY DAD....I'm not a maverick owner or should really be on this site but I noticed Don Kuss II... well Don is my dad. I can c many of u were communicating with him about his guage cluster thingy ( sorry Idk ) well I'm so sorry to have to inform u all my dad passed away Nov 18 2010 :( this is not a joke u can view his obituary red bluff daily news. His death was suddenn very unexpected he was in his early 40s. He had a heart problem his whole life n caused a massive heart attack. He was a great dad a great man. He loved his cars all cars especially sharke, his maverick he built in high school his never ending project. My younger brother gets his most precious toy n can't wait to continue wit his wishes n it is now his dream. I thought is take the time to let anyone he communicated with know he is now the top mechanic in heaven n in our hearts.

    Very sorry to hear about your Dad. :(

    I really enjoyed watching him develop his gauge cluster.
