aftermarket tacs.
OK, I cant say it enough, I hate the ralley dashes. And I refuse to pay the high dollar $$$ to have them rebuilt. Mine has demons and I am DONE with it. Plus I want a more modern look.
So what I am planning on doing since I cant find a decent bezel that will house 2 five inch gauges, a tach and a speedo and the other four smaller gauges, WATER-OIL-VOLTS-FUEL. IS I am going with a non rally right side cluster and placing the speedo and four small gauges inside that.
Now I have a tach left and am trying to deide where to mount it???
I dont like the steering column look and I did that on my 67 Dart. This TAC has a shift light as well.
Where did you mount your tacs---Any pics are appreciated.
I wish they made a dash cap like some of the B bodies that house some gauges in the dash.
I am thinking of cutting the center console( I have a spare) and fabricatng it into the front of that and molding it up, so its contoured!!!!
The interior of the Cuda vert is red and black and the console was shot with SEM, so I can adapt it. I thought I could mount the TAC down inside the frotn of the console, but cutting it a bit and ever so slightlu counter sink the TAC into it and them relocate shoft light to match, close to it, so there are two raised areas???
Can I see your ideas??? Any suggestions on what you think would look good.
And this is a 70 Barracuda Grand Coupe that I started 14 years ago. Its non original and Viper red with the radio antenna mounted in the back rear quarter because the quarter came off of a destroyed AAR(PINK AAR) so I am not concerned with any particular look or making it original.
Thanks Dave
