Title: Classic Dash - 1968-70 B-Body Gauge Panel - Anyone Try This?
Post by: NYCMille on January 27, 2016, 11:07:17 PM
Hey Guys -

Just as the title states. I'm redoing my dash and I was wondering if anyone has gone down this road yet.

http://classicdash.com/product/1968-70-mopar-b-body-dash-panel-with-auto-meter-gauges/ (http://classicdash.com/product/1968-70-mopar-b-body-dash-panel-with-auto-meter-gauges/)

Looks like an interesting setup and I like that I can choose my own gauges, but more concerned with overall fitment than anything else.

Any insight/experience with this would be great!

Thanks - Mike

Member Redmist installed that panel with a cool set of Speedhut gauges and apparently the gauges sit at a funky angle. Not a deal breaker but would be nicer if they were molded for better viewing angle.

I don't know any lonely midgets. I actually don't know of any midgets whatsoever.

I always loved the wood grain dash bezels but hated the price so I made my own with New Vintage gauges.  All you need to fabricate is a drill press and a router.

Well it certainly ain't perfect, definitely not worth the sale price, but I like it...
