So, I removed the instrument cluster for a few reasons: 1. Paint it white 2. Install LED's 3. Replace bulbs for general illumination (I can't believe that I thought all three were out.) Well, turns out the circuit was pretty torn up, so I'm looking for a new one. Where could I get one of these? Does a company make them or should I put an ad up in the wanted section? I need it pretty soon.
Hey Will: Do you know if these printed circuits deteriorate often? Is it a common problem? Anyone? I have been thinking about reproducing these, as I work in the electronics industry here in Texas (Richardson, as a matter of fact). These would not be that big of a deal to remanufacture, I have the resources. Chris
Nobody makes new. I have lots of used circuits. I can sell you without any of the hard plastic if that is what you need. Email me directly (see below) if I can help. Chris: I see no need to reproduce these....as there are lots of used ones out there, IMIP (In My Informed Position)
Thanks Craig, I appreciate the feedback on the circuit board. Jack, true that. My instrument cluster was POWDER. Does anyone have a need for REPRO CLUSTERS? I have a way to do them..... Chris
I have lots of printed circuits. I have not really seen these go bad. The problem I have is I cant find the clear plastic window for the gauges. All the ones I have are milky or have a frosted look to them. I tried sanding and buffing one out but the milky part seems to be embeded into the plastic completely.
If you get the lens set from a '69-'70 Mach 1, the lens is the same and works fine, and, it is new. You will have the two smaller lenses that you can't use, but you will have a new cluster lens.
Panel While you have the panel apart, if you remove the blue caps off the bulbs, you will increase the dash lights output 100%. Texasjack
I know that this post is a little old, but I just kept putting it off. Do you have any with the hard plastic? If possible, I would rather not meddle with putting that on the plastic.
