i have them in my 53 ... they look pretty good .all electric. the grapics dont line up with the needle. next time im going with autometer

 

The Hoffman group is the parent company of Auto Loc which is just another way to spell crap.

 

amen!

 

That sucks!
They have a set that are white with a brown "sunburst" (guitar guys will get that) that I liked the look of.

oh well, Auto meter "classic series" it is.

 

You've used these gauges?

Autometer and Classic Inst have great gauges but you see them in allot of other cars. I like the uniqueness of designing my own and since my name isn't Foose or Trapanier I cant afford Classic Inst. building me a set.

I'm not running and 8k rpm race motor here. Are they really that bad for a mild SBC?

 

I've seen a couple set of these, they look cheap...

 

Couldn't you just buy the custom faces from Aurora and put them in a different set og gauges?

 

Cheap and cheesy lookin if you ask me.

Someone from that place came on here a while back and dropped a nice load of spam right in the middle of everything.
