Autometer doing custom gauges now

I saw this from the SEMA show.

Auto Meter Custom Shop

I like the look of them . In my dream 56' this is the gauge set I would like to run. Autometer I think is still made in the US and they have offer fuel gauges with the different ohms for Ford, Aftermarket, and GM. Now I gotta email autometer and see how bad the price is!!

Expect to spend around $560 for the 5 pack. I bought from R&E racing. And it is a bugger tight fit in a '48-50, don't know how more space the 55 has. I measured literally 30 times and drew it all up in cad cause there is only 1-2 millimeters spare room between in spots.

Here's mine:

$560 includes is the kit with all the sending units EXCEPT the fuel... and I am tempted to tell you to get autometer genuine, I got the same ohm range cheaper model from summit racing and it is not working - currently diagnosing.
