At the moment my project stands still because cold winter over here in Germany.
So now I'm looking around, search for parts I want and writing my parts-lists and things like that. Now I need some help from you guys finding me some black facing gauges for my 59/60 Impala dashboard I'm building for my 79 Monte Carlo.

this is a 59/60 impala gauge pod with autometer gauges:

I want the same thing but with black face gauges.


So, I'm looking for a AutoMeter Speedometer (Part# 4489-M):

Its the only 5" Speedometer with KPH scale that Autometer has. Only available in silver. I need KPH scales because I'm in Germany.

But I want that Speedometer with a black face - something like AutoMeter's Part# 3990 Tachometer "Sport-Comp" series.

Already looked on Autometer, all gauges I need are available in "sport-comp" series - but no 5" Speedometer.

Are there any companies outthere that could help me with that? Any ideas?

Thanks,
-Kevin

Send it over to our shop. We do tons of custom work. We can re-screen the autometers, or us our gauges. We can even do something similar to the original OEM gauges, then you get the look of the era with new gauges, we can do backlighting, LED, whatever you need.

Not sure what the theme of the car is but our 1967 has a 67 feel, we wil have them in a couple weeks:

If you want something a bit more retro, we have our Woodward series:
