Well the weather was nasty here in Michigan today so I installed my Cluster in the Old Center Vent Space to day. Used Auto Meter Carbon Fiber 2inch Gauges. Here are some Pictures I will put a Tech Article up later. I think it came out pretty nice. ...Kirk
I gutted the Original Center Dash vent with a Tile Cutter,it took some time. and 2 inch PCV will fit Perfect inside the Frame work.
I love it! Nice work. It even makes me think about cutting up my non-AC dash to make this happen in my car.
Nice work, looks clean . I just bought some 2 1/2" tubing last week for my cluster arrangement. Thinking to remove my ashtray and fill that area then blow 3 holes and tig in the tubing on an angle. I dont have a vent area on the 71. Great job sorta makes me wish I had a vent because my whole dash has to come out to do my idea correctly.
I did this with my 71 but I used PVC like "MRSKYDOG" I added F150 vents instead of gauges but either would work.
nice thanx I might try the pvc looks pretty clean and easier to do. thanx for pics especially the back shot.
