I'm thinking of replacing my sweeper with a custom dash. I would incorporate a speedo, tach, oil, temp & voltmeter in that dash. Has anyone done this before? Can I see pictures? How do I deal with the curved face, and where do I put the turn signals? I want to keep the same triangular shape for the signals. I guess I want to make a round gauge package that looks like it was designed in 66.

Man the sweeper dashes are great! Why mess with perfection?

Sorry I couldn't help more. I just like the old sweepers.

Check out Chad's new dash, it looks pretty cool ! Kind of reminds me of an aircraft cockpit

Have you ever checked out a Beaumont dash? Round gauges if you prefer them. The dashes were taken straight from the Tempest/Lemans/GTO parts bin.
