Custom dash for 1970 chally

Postby plum-crazy » 27 Jan 2009 6:52

No, I don't have one yet but I'm thinking about change the original (keeping it in a box) for a new custom dash or must I say cluster.

Maybe made in aluminium with the same shape of the original one but with autometer gauges.

Have anyone notices about companies or similar who builds it? I just need the cluster, then I will buy the rest of gauges I need.

Thanks.

XV Motorsports do this one. Not cheap though.

Here are some "Home Made" ones - including the carbon one in my car.

There used to be a firm called Rocky Mountain Dashes, that made them (XV clusters look a lot like RMD ones did). They're gone now, but they had 3 different layouts, and, the finish looked quite good. I've read about fitting problems, though.
Clusters sold for about 450 USD if I remember correctly.
