    That dash is gonna look great in there! Cant wait to see what you have planned for it ,as others have already said great vision and planning Ian this car is going to be radically understated if that makes any sense !

    Great idea for the dash. Very well conceived overall. Subtle is the new over the top.

    The dash is going to be killer. This car is destined for fame as is the builder.

    Glad you guys like the dash!! its not the most original but it works well. SIMPLE!! Like i said , i don't think im gonna use the pods, My wife likes the long horizontal speedos so im gonna try to find something that fits in there !! Any suggestions about a cool , not so square speedo???

    Stoked on the positive comments and stoked to share this build !!! Why keep it a secret??? :eek:;)
     
  11. Ian...the speedo in my '64 Imperial is really long and horizontal. It doesn't have a needle either, instead its an orange bar that moves further and further to the right as the speed goes up...it's pretty cool lookin.

    Take a look at the '60 Buick dash. It's unique in the form that it uses a mirror to display the speedo.

    66 lincoln speedometer for a possible suggestion.
     
  21. Here's a pic of the dash of my '64 Imperial. Probably would have to gut out the inside of the cluster and make your own surround for it, I thought I'd at least show you what it looks like.
