I finally finished my circuit board upgrade on my 63 Fury, installed a brand new circuit board and put in a solid state voltage regulator. Just curious to hear from you all if you can tell wether or not I am missing anything. Here is a before and after shot...

Well from a hometown boy I think it looks great! I just may have to pick your brain a little.

Yeah man, absolutely. Where in Rochester are you? I live out in Chili.
Hoping to get everything all put back together soon once the weather turns....whole interior is gutted at the moment. I really just hope when I install this back into the car, ALL my gauges work again..getting a bit tired of not knowing how much gas I have in the car.

Did you build a new circuit board?

No, I didn't actually build the circuit board....I'm really not any good with electrical stuff. I researched replacements for these, and came across a company (name escapes me right now) that actually manufactures brand new boards for early Mopars....cost me about $160 for the board. Then I bought a solid state voltage regulator, and put it all back together.
There were wires and leads going to all sorts of random places on the original board so I had no idea what the issue could have been...but came to think the copper traces may have just gone dead, so I bit the bullet and bought new.
2 gauges on my cluster (fuel gauge and engine temp) would either work very sporatically or not at all...being that I had planned to redo my entire interior this winter, I figured I might as well do EVERYTHING while I had it apart. Just hope it works when I put it back together.

Very cool, I'm just off Coldwater in the track by Wegmans. We'll have to meet up once the weather gets better.
