Woah...those gauges look sick!

Just curious, any thoughts of making a speedo/odo. in one and the vitals in the other pod? It would be a pretty good looking gauge package in a firebird with a hood tach (I would totally be in for a set).

Guys,
as for colors, I woudl say about 70% of our work is custom, so we can always do a custom dial.
Right now the hash marks are the 67-69 mint green, we have the proper color code for it.

Matt: We can do a speedo and 4-1 right now, we have all the parts.

This is the original 6 gauge concept that will match the 3-1s. then you can mix and match parts, big speedo, and the rest small, or whatever. Working on it all right now.

That is a great style, kind of similar the Green-line series from Stewart Warner, problem was they only had a few gauges in that style.

Ran some test dials for the brushed look. Came out really good, looks better in person. Best of all, we can light through-the dial and still get the metal or even chrome look. We also ran some chrome ink, and it came out great too. Ill take some pics of that to.

Played around with another way to customize this week. we did some lens etching. A cool way to add something to a gauge without being obnoxious. Looks pretty classy

Do you have any pictures of the Faria series white gauges in a car? Good price :thumbsup:

Not yet, We just received the samples and are going to debut them at the Hot Rod and Restoration show this week. Yes a great price, and I would put them up against any brand for quality, function, warranty. We get to use their massive military, OEM and marine volume to get some serious cost reduction on these sets.

Mark those metal look faces looks really good. Cant wait to me hands on my gauges:cool:

What do you have for '55-'56?

Your gauges are incredible! Can you also do custom work like this?

Larry,
I would say that 70% of what we do is custom. That panel would be a one-off built from scratch retrofit, so it would not be cheap.

I had a feeling... When I found that pic the post said it is a very expensive panel. I'm kinda torn between that fairly stock looking panel and the full-on multi-gauge panel look. Nothing but options, until I buy one! The Classic Instruments panel is still very close to the top of my list.

Thanks for the response and keep coming up with new ideas!
