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. If you are looking for gauge overlays, I make those too, custom or OEM. I've made them for several vehicles and can make...

Re: My New custom cab cluster and 'stock look tach"

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...
