Got pic's of the dash cluster

[Russ69Runner]

Sorry have to figure out how to get the pic's to load.

 

[Russ69Runner]

Well finally got it figured out would not load till converted it to my pictures folder. IMG would not work. It looks brand new. What you guy's think. Cut the edges off some but you get the idea. Speed O rolled back 00000.1 Fixed the speed O it was in bad shape said it would never had worked.

Looks great ! Good job Russ

 

[Russ69Runner]

I can say did not do this my self. Paid dearly for it but it dose look nice. Just don't have enough time to do every thing had to out scores some thing.

Turned out well... now get it in the car and get that odometer to start ticking.

 

[Russ69Runner]

I would but they have not sent it to me yet. Was suppose to have gotten it last Friday. They had problem's with one of their workers was sick. Also one passed away. So have been trying to get it finished so they could get it too me. Working on vent window's and every thing else. Still have to do some things to the motor also.

 

[1968 man]

Would that be considered odometer tampering ????? Lol, it looks great .

 

[1968 man]

Mine came with the chrome bezel but I liked the black instead

 

[Russ69Runner]

Not after a car is considered antique. They had to work on the Speed O. It was broken it was repairable. Could have been worst so the people told me. Might not have been able to fix at all. The price was a punch in the gut for sure but that will be behind me once the car is done and driving. I asked the question of my wife she works for the state DMV division here. As you all may well know their is still a lot to do to the car this is not holding me up. The CV virus is keeping me at home thank goodness can get part's shipped to keep the project going. Thank you for the thought 1968 man.

 

[Russ69Runner]

Your dash turned out looking Grate 1969 man. Hope this one looks as good when done.

 

[1968 man]

It will , keep up the good work

 

[1968 man]

Just kidding about the tampering it looks great

 

[Russ69Runner]

I knew that for sure. Believe me had to ask the same question when they told me they could 0 it out. This will make it so I know how many miles that have been put on the car after the rebuild. Know that the car had at least 113.0000 miles on it.

 

[1968 man]

That’s a lot of miles back in the day

Looks outstanding Russ. How did you get the odometer to 0?

 

[Russ69Runner]

The guy's that did the job asked if I wanted it to start at zero. I said why not. One friend of mine said while it is apart you can move the counter numbers with you finger's. Have worked on a few and had to clean the throw's in the back where frozen up from water. They where on tractor's. Cleaned a few car's Odometers back a long time ago they where simple. You could get into them with out braking things. Yes they did a good job for me but took a big bite out of the car budget. So will have to wait another month before getting the new window vent frame work.

With 113,000 on it I think the speedo would have been a neat feature on a a done car !!

 

[Russ69Runner]

Yes that would have been a good idea. This car is going to be like new so might as well start at zero. This is my idea of how to keep up with how many miles the car has on it after the restore. Just me. Thought it would be cool to see it with a fresh start on miles.

Looks good Russ now the only thing that is missing is the year 1969 too bad we can’t turn back time when gas was cheaper than a quart of oil

 

[RAINMANYEH]

Maybe Russ can install a flux capacitor while he’s restoring the RR, then that 1.21 jigawatts could get him back to those earlier days.
