Hello,
I own a very original 69 Z28. The last owner that owned the car for 34 years installed gauges.(Water, temp, oil, under the dash in a decent looking holder or cluster.)
My car did not come with the gauges in the console. But it does have a console and did come with a tach and a fuel gauge. I do not want to add a console with gauges simply because the car did not come with this option. Of course the added gauges that are on the car and the ones that I want did not come with the car either. But they seem more correct to me because this is something someone would have done back then. But I do want gauges so I can see what this old engine is doing.
Jerry MacNeish came to the house to review the car a few weeks ago. He loved the idea of the added gauges on the car while keeping everything original. But said the ones I have need to go and that I should find some nicer period correct gauges.
I am a little confused as to which gauges to go with. I know Stewart Warner makes the green light gauges that seem to have the look of the 60's. Or is there something else I should be looking at?
Should I find some actual 60's gauges to go in the car? If so, which ones and how do I find them?
Thanks for the help!!!!!
Anthony
