I can remember seeing this in a magazine. I think it was in an old Comet or Falcon, but the dash had been customised or something, and the radio had been moved, and there were three autometer guages placed in the dash where the radio should be. I need help finding pictures of this. I already messed up my dash putting a CD player in it and I'm not satisfied...looking at other options....does anyone else remember seeing something like this/think this is a good idea this or am I high?

 

Sorry, don't remember.

But keep the tunes!

 

 

It could be just a piece of metal, with three holes cut out for the stereo hole, pics of the place you're talking about? welding up an insert wouldnt be too difficult

 

Do you know how much time I have spent fixing the dash in my 66 because someone did the same thing you did !!!

 

Thats what I'm askin...I've looked, but cant find any...i wanted to know of you guys have seen some recently and have them..

 

I can't think of any specific products off the top of my head, but I know they make em. not sure if they are all tailored to the specific car or are custom/universal applications

that being said, its not too hard to do this yourself. just get a piece of the preferred metal cut to the size of the radio area cutout, and make holes to mount whatever guages you want

 

well, I meant, just a general pic of the area where you want this, just a pic of the radio. It shouldnt be too hard to make a piece

 

here is a terrible mock up of what I'm wanting...this is not my car....

 

I guess you would call it a radio delete panel with guage pod...or someting like that...Paul?

i found this but its for 67-68..

heres a radio delete for a 64-66 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/65-66...2022010004r872

you could probably fandangle some gauges into there..

ill keep looking

 

I'd have to look at the place, but you could bend up some metal, and cut a few pipes (diameter of the guages) and weld it together for much cheaper than those

 

thats the ideal solution, i was just trying to find the original cody was talkin about

 

There is no original...I just saw a custom job in a mag once and I just want to see it again so I can figure out how to do it...that piece on ebay might be a good start at a custom piece...with a little work it may work.
