Some details on the repop gauges I am using in my restoration.

Technically I am into resto-mod territory since I will also be using an aluminum radiator, and non original colors.

The gauges are 12v, so the voltage regulator can be bypassed by connecting the leads together that would otherwise go to the 10v regulator.

The illumination for the repops is fully compatible with the original wiring harness, so no modifications required. If you wish to use the repop lights, you will need to cut off the original sockets and replace them with spade connectors. Light bulbs and sockets are supplied with the new gauges.

The OP gauge is electric, so you must replace the capillary tube with a wire, and use an electric OP sender.

The gauges are a drop in fit to the instrument panel, and are available with black or chrome bezels and up or down pointing needles. Lead time is approximately 3 weeks as they are shipped from India. Shipping charges were less than $10 US, don't ask me how they get them to the US so cheap.
