It is the best of both worlds. But, you pretty much have to use the Smiths gauges, and you really need the reverse speedometer to make it all "work." Uhhh, and did I mention the walnut burl shift knob and Moto-Lita steering wheel just go beautifully with the Smiths look? And, the absolute best way to ensure that the spoke of the wheel doesn't block a gauge is to get the quick release hub -- that way you can configure the orientation of the steering wheel in a jiffy. Hmmmm, let's just stretch that budget a little more....
