Fergie,
Thanks! the Pancho gauges are where I want to end up. The guages I made from the late model GM van are a temporary stop gap (of course by temporary I mean a length of time roughy equivelant to a decade or so).
AX, I'm not sure what guage it is, I haven't messed with it for a couple of years (dang, time sure seems to fly by). I did the initial work on this back in 2003 or 2004. I'm much more confident in my abilities now and might be up to the challenge.
Oz,
The reason I had to back mount the Pancho gauges is that they originally set into a concave area in the Pancho dash so that on the sides there is approx 6" of beautiful chrome housing but on the tops on the bottom there is only approx 2" of housing.
..........someday.........

Kusto, Ummmm cookies, Thanks man. At one time I was buying 56 cabs to get lids, cowls, and clean firewalls as well as the humps for resale to guys needing clean parts. The 2 hump came from a perfect cab with the lid, floor and rear section going to a fellow FTE'r. Other lids went to top choppers in the area.I went this route since I really liked my 55 Belair dash w/ twin humps. Here you go.....

Kusto, you so qwazy man. I would not have a problem driving a truck with the 55"set up with the f-100 logo in the right side. I notice the yellow truck put in more of the hump (i see the 2 screws ) and lost the glove box. The hump looks better in his truck, but I like my glove box as well. It could almost be my truck , as it also has the rounded corner on the door and 1 pc glass. Weird..Who would have known what he was thinking, maybe something floating in the air that we both caught ??
