Dashboard overhaul

drawz said

Hi!

I'm planning to overhaul the dashboard in my 67 Dodge Dart GT. All of my instruments are not working, so I need new ones. Thought I'll buy instruments and a plate to make my own.

I was wondering if some of you have done this, and can post pictures how it turned out for you?

And, should I go for mechanical or electric gauges?

Thanks

I went with an insert from classicdash.com (i prefer the gauge placement to the fastlane west versions)

And i'd definitely go with electric gauges. I think the mechanical speedos are more of a hassle than they are worth with todays technology and mech. oil gauges involve having a breakable oil line in your interior. I went with a speedhut kit and went full electric on everything. Including a GPS speedo.
