So currently the only gauge that is working in my 66 Coronet 500 is my speedometer, so my next project on this car is my dash and cluster. I am not a purist, so staying stock isn't important to me and even more so when I looked up replacement costs for wiring harness and new gauges for stock. Honestly not a huge fan of the rectangle gauges.
So I started looking up alternatives to stock and what I could find for an aftermarket solution. Sadly I couldn't find much. Doesn't seem to be any pre-built kits or dash inserts. I was able to find a youtube of a custom Coronet with Autometer gauges, and the look is great, but fairly sure it was custom fabricated. So thinking this is one option (added a pic of custom dash, not my pic).
Another option would to get a 66 Charger dash as they fit and it would get the round gauges and a cool custom look as well.
So wondering if anyone here has done anything custom with their dash and gauges and what did you need to get the gauges to work?
