Question

Dash modification

Has anyone taken their dash and convert the gauges to round gauges. Basically redoing the whole dash?

I really liked the round gauges on my 65 and I really dislike the sweep arm speedos on the bump sides.

I'm very uneducated when it comes to electrical. Is this something where I could determine which wires that go into the "board" in the back of the dash go to which instruments?

Lots of guys have done this.

If you type FTE in the search bar on a Google search and your question you will come up with plenty of info from this forum. Like this:

Yeah, the search function here is not so great so I just skip it and Google any search from outside the site.
