Have a 79 Blazer 2wd with a 402,just put all white face overlay gauges in it,now i found a tach dash from a 79 and bought it,gauges looks so cool,i hate to put tach in,maybe id better just get a white faced Autometer and sell this one?Ive had them from 73's before are they worth the same or more/less.I had a hard time finding one with Volt gauge.but got lucky Sat at boneyard.Or is it a better ebay item?it does work.lens is a little faded but im sure would polish up,AZ sun is hard on that stuff.

DR, if you got those overlays from the guy on ebay then you are probably in luck, A cohort of mine sent him a tach and small fuel gauge to make templates from and he now sells them also. You may have to buy a whole kit again but they were cheap anyway.DAVE
