I just completed some dash work in my '75 Power Wagon. Here are some before and after pictures. When I got the truck it had a nice dash mat cover on it. Well, when I took off the mat I found out why it was on there! The truck is a southern truck so the dash top and glovebox door were badly sun baked. Also, the gauge housing was missing the radio support and was all busted up. With help from a Moparts member and eBay I got what I needed to make it nice again. The gauges are all in a nice new used housing and the dash top and glovebox door were replaced with excellent used parts and it all looks great again!

that was the best designed dash ever, looks great, you can change fuses in complete comfort, plus the glove box makes a great food tray. you did a great job...now lets see the truck!

Refurbished mine too, gauges and all That looks great. I had to take all my original gauges out of the old housing and even removed the circuit board and lights and put them in a good used housing and put it all back together again. New gauges like you have would have been nice to have!

New gauges like you have would have been nice to have! I see them NOS on ebay quite often. All but speedometer are fairly inexpensive. I have a spare gauge pod, if you'd like to have it. PM me and it's yours.
