Need bezel and instrument housing. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

gchemist · 01-15-2008, 01:30 AM

I need to mockup my Autometer guage setup. I don't want to pull my current setup until the new guages are ready to go in. I need an old bezel and stock instrument housing. I will pay for shipping but don't feel like pay for the parts. I'm going to cut them up and not use them. I only need to find a better way to install an Auto Pro Comp guage setup. I will credit anyone who provides any parts on the article writeup.

i have something for you i think let me look in the disaster known as my basement
If i do have a bezel its for a non air conditioned truck.

I've got one out of a 74 that is cracked off where the radio was - do you just need the gauge area or the whole dash?

I just need the guage area. As long the housing can be fitted to the bezel it will work. I can't remember, does the bezel screw into the housing?

Don't think so... the 74 has screw clips that mount on the metal dash and the bezel screws into those. 4 at the top, 2 each side, and 4 around the base of the steering wheel mount...

Mine looks like this, except the radio section is missing.

The top of the bezel screws to the housing, the rest screw to the metal part of the dash.

Let me know if you want to part with it. I'll send you shipping costs for it.

Thanks!

Anyone have a housing available?

It's all yours! I can't imagine shipping is any more than $15 going USPS. PM me your address and I can take it to the post office tomorrow.
