Since swapping the LT1/4L60e into my '69, I have not had a working speedometer, because the late-model transmissions are electronic instead of cable driven speedos.
I bought these gauges about 2 years ago, and am finally getting around to putting them in. I am also changing my interior from black to parchment this winter, so I think the white faces will look pretty cool with the white-ish upholstery. Don't worry, I need to take it apart again, and will thoroughly clean it before installing it. :)

The only thing missing is that cool blue bowtie '69s have for the bright-indicator... Luckily I have a brother who is a CNC machinist. He's going to make me a billet aluminum panel to go where the gear-indicator was, which will have a blue-bowtie bright-indicator and "CHEVELLE" milled into it, which I will paint to match the gauges. :cool:
