'59 instrument cluster - before and after - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Here's how I spent the day after Thanksgiving...
The insert and gauges are from Brothers, the instruments are AutoMeter Arctic White gauges, Brothers insert comes with oil pressure, temp, voltmeter, and fuel, all size 2 1/16", and a Speedometer.
I bought a matching 2 1/16" tach and 2 1/16" quartz clock from my local Auto Masters store, and took the voltmeter out of the insert, and replaced it with the tach, and then intalled the voltmeter and clock above my radio in the dash.
Finally accurate readings on the new 350, instead of the old style needle and hash marks.
Before and After:
