I need to have the instrument cluster restored (standard instrument cluster for 70 cuda). I want to make sure all the gauges, lights, etc. work and i want the artwork on the gauges redone. basically i want it brand new to reinstall in my dash frame. anyone have a company they had a good experience with or someone they would recommend over another vendor? I want top quality work.
Also looking for a company that restores plastic panels for instrument cluster & radii face plate etc..
Thanks
Nicklas

I've had one complete dash done and another currently there at http://www.instrument-specialties.com/ in Rhode Island. They do amazing work.

Redline did just the gauges on your T/A. Curious if you've done any other E-body rallye's at other places to compare to?

Hi Steve, I had Instrument Specialties restore the complete dash on my 71 Charger R/T and was very happy with their work. The dash from my 71 Duster 340 is there now. The gauges on the T/A look great also that's why I usually recommend Redline for west coast guys and Instrument Specialties for the east coast. The advantage of Instrument Specialties is they still have the original suede paint so if you're looking to get a complete dash assembly done they can paint it just like the factory did.

Be prepared for a nice bill... they are not cheap to get restored. Last time I sent gauges out, it was near 1000.

Price??? The quote on the cluster with tach rebuild/refacing for my '71 GTX was $1850 I'm sure the '68-70 cluster with a tic tac tach would be higher. First rate work though
