Re: My New custom cab cluster and 'stock look tach"
Hey folks, its Andrew. OrangeRcode brought me over here. I don't have any tachs or vacuum gauges, but I do know someone that does and can get you in touch with him if you'd like.

Re: My New custom cab cluster and 'stock look tach"
This bezel came from a 66 F100 I6 city truck with Ford wiring so it may be original. Has the 80 psi as posted above. http://i1237.photobucket.com/albums/ff469/white65ford/65%20Fleet%20Bed/20170601_182000.jpg http://i1237.photobucket.com/albums/ff469/white65ford/65%20Fleet%20Bed/20170601_182004.jpg ...

Re: My New custom cab cluster and 'stock look tach"
These two would be nice, but they don't offer either for the tach...as for the illuminated overlay I think it's white when it's not lit up, but to use that you have to have a aftermarket light and dimmer switch...too bad I think the gauges would be a lot easier to see at night. http://i32.photobucke...

I'm planning a similar conversion in my sixty two using 95 ford van seats. Since I have the original seat I'm going to start by measuring the height front and back. Then put my old seat on a sheet of plywood, mark and drill the holes. Next grind the rivits and remove the lower brackets and bolt the...
