Right now I would settle for a really clean replacement, can I refab the one I have? HELP!? | | | | | Joined: Oct 2009 Posts: 426 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Oct 2009 Posts: 426 | I tracked down NOS gauges for my 63 and refurbished mine myself. Lots of patience and detail work and they look better than new. The clusters are fairly simple to tear down. I think they look better than the electronic gauges personally, but build the truck for your preferance. I just think the nostalgic gauges look cooler. I know that bowtie bits has refurbished unit available though. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2002 Posts: 1,002 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Nov 2002 Posts: 1,002 | Update by replacing with a factory gauge dash or an after market?

I don't own a vehicle that isn't old enough to drink.

The work to install is the same. Its whatever you think looks better and the application that fits you (and your pocket) the best. Like I said...My preferance is to keep it stock. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 1,552 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 1,552 | www.bowtiebits.com sells refurbished 4-5-6 Chevy truck dash clusters with factory gauges. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2009 Posts: 32 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Nov 2009 Posts: 32 | I agree the original gauges are cooler, and all mine still work fine, but they look dusty or faded. If I tear them down can they be cleaned well enough to look new, or at least better? | | | | | Joined: Nov 2009 Posts: 32 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Nov 2009 Posts: 32 | Oh and thanks for the link to Bow Tie Bits. Thats going to help me with some other tid bits I need,...  | | | | | Joined: Oct 2009 Posts: 426 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Oct 2009 Posts: 426 | Be carefull when you disassemble the gauges that you do not use a wet rag. You will remove the paint off the front of the gauges. Use a dry rag or canned air. There are new decals for the gauges out there and I used modeling paint for the needles. | | |
