just installed my homemade white face gauges

i have to adjust the oil pressure needle and replace the speedo needle, plus i'm getting clear red plastic to replace the green for the turn signals. imo i think they came out pretty good, i'm happy with it

thanks for the compliments guys, i really love how they came out. and here's the kicker, before i did it, my temp gauge didn't work, when i took it apart to put the white faces on, i found out that the needle was just stuck, so now it works.

i could agree with you more on that. even though i really don't know much at all about cars, half the fun of owning my car is working on it. whenever i go out to my car, someone will say damn now what are you doing to your car? i'll just say something like i don't know, but i'll find something.
