Default Dash is Finished

But less the wiring. I'm also undecided on the switch panel. Currently I have a brushed aluminum panel with standard toggle switches. But I'm thinking of changing to a black panel with engraved white letters and lighted toggle switches

Nice! I like the vintage radium tip switches but that's just me.

I Like the brushed aluminium panel. Looks period correct.
What's the second oil temp gauge for? Gearbox?
Cheers,
Glen

I much prefer the black panel shown in your photo for this application. I also like Lucas style switches.

Looks great .......You are probably going to want a glove box in the future and that Speedo is pretty far away. In twenty odd years I have changed the interior completely four times , with a different layout each time.....

Looks good Bill, I want to change my dash a bit now. The only problem I have is my speedo. I have gone thru three cables. I am going to switch to the SW electric speedo, but it only comes in 5". I am not sure how it will look.

I like the set up verry much.
Speedo isn't inportant.

Search Amazon or wherever you shop online for gps speedometer. There are some very nice looking and easy to install setups. That's what I'm going with.
