Rocketmans Tach conversion ROCKS in renewed dash

[imusa76]

I need to find a core gauge to have redone, I like the Tach look in the dash.

you can just purchase the whole unit as well no core charge

Great job. One thing that really stood out was the color of your interior. I think it is outstanding. It really brings out the interior. Did you redo any of it, or is it well preserved?

New seat covers a couple of years ago but they are factory look alikes, new carpet,, repainted the center console and the sides of my repro center dash panel, as well as the backs of the front seats, door panels are factory and still look good, as are the arm rest and trim around the windows... Dash pad has been replaced and painted as well with the flex paint. Steering wheel I bought on here with a few small cracks and after filling the cracks and alot of cleaning and polishing it shines, steering wheel center pad is factory but the red emblem is new,,, the car has been garage kept for the last 25 years, that helps.

Can I ask how you fixed the cracks in the steering wheel? I have a couple of cracks in mine as well.

I bought a 2 part liquid epoxy and a brown epoxy dye for liquids,

it took a very small amount of the dye to color the epoxy, I tried a couple of small doses and it is hard to get it right, mine ended up to dark after all but is hard to see from the front

doing this I did not need to paint

Thanks for the info. I will give it a shot later this fall. Yours looks fantastic.
