I am still working on getting the cab ready for paint on my 51, but I would like to start looking at gauge choices. I am going to 12 volt and this will be a daily driver truck. I have seen several pictures of custom gauges, but cannot find who sells them. I want a Speedo, Tach, fuel, odometer, temp, oil, volt, turn indicators, and a bright light indicator. I would like to get some thing that is not digital, because I like the classic look. I will consider anything. Any Ideas???

 

You can grab a Rod and Custom, or Street-Rodder magazine, and look at the ads in there. And boy, there's a lot of them, lol.

Otherwise, you can try Stewart Warner

 

I bought 2 sets on E-bay brand new for $200 a set One set of 6 Dolphins for my 50f1 and a set of 6 Auto Meter old school white. Both new in the box never used.

 

Hi,

If you don't want to convert your 6 volt gauges for use withthe 12 volty system - which is very easy and very in expensive (relatively); or you don't want to convert your oil and temp to mechanical gauges - which is also pretty easy, here is a link to a catalogue that you might be interested in browsing through - some nice stuff:

Auto Meter - Gauges

Have fun!

 

I got my guages that are in my truck from Oldnewparts on Ebay, look in my gallery (wiring harness) and there should be a pic or 2 of them. He has guages for all sorts of years plus the guage set I got from him came with the billet guage panel. Infact I just ordered the clock to go with the guages I got from him. Its a Dolphin set thats brand new and comes with all the sending units and all that good stuff and I think it ran me right around 200ish.

 

I know how to convert the old gauges, I just like the look of the new ones and they are more accurate. I want the kind that fits right into the dash. I picked up a sheet of paper at the Springfield ohio swapmeet. That has pictures of several different types of what I want, but no website.

 

Try New Vintage USA. They fit right in. Mine have an older look to them, but this place will make anything you want. New Vintage USA GAUGE FITMENT AND DASH PANELS
