Good Afternoon,
The only gauges working on my 72 Rallye are odometer and voltage. It does have a clock. All are looking their age. I've looked through the forum postings on dash issues and am trying to decide whether to rebuild, replace, or retrofit.
Dakota digital looks like a trouble free way to go, but I might like to keep more original.
Has anyone used Autoinstruments.com in Martinsville VA? They would rebuild, modernize, and calibrate the cluster for between $750 and $1000, including faces and lenses for the higher price.
The car is mostly original, other than a '69 340, and I would kind of prefer to keep the original look.
Looks like I should remove seats and at least lower the steering column to do the dash. If that's the advice from all, I'll have follow up questions about sound deadening and carpet.
Thanks, Doug
