Posted December 21, 200420 yr comment_105823 Ok so I've been searching the net for some replacement gauges to fit in my new fiberglass dash from PDK Fabrication. I'm looking for something that is going to have somewhat of a period feel so no 5" Autometer MonsterTach w/shift light for me...I found a pair of classic-looking speedo & tach I liked from Smiths (yes THE British Smiths, now doing a lot of Cobra gauges at the moment)The US distributor's website:http://www.gaugeguys.com/Smiths/Authentic/Classic/speedotach.htmI've looked at VDO and while their gauges are as plain jane as you get, that does give them a lit bit of a timeless feeling to them...There's the British company SPA which does make dual readout 2" gagues like what our cars came with (fuel/amp, water/oil temp, etc, etc)... but those are digital and well it doesn't get more modern than that...Who else is there?I guess I could look at the Japanese Omori gauges...Basically while I'm leaning to going the Smiths route I'm looking for suggestions of other brands I might not know about.-e Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/14401-gauge-manufacturers-need-ideas/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
December 26, 200420 yr comment_106253 Vaguely recall that there is at least one American company that does those sort of gauges. Can't remember the name but it could have been sort of Germanic in origin.
