Oh hi all, I'm looking for some classic looking gauges for my never ending project build, and was after some ideas. I've looked at the Smiths range, but I'm really not sure if I like them too much. Does anyone have any ideas, or know of other brands that make a more classy old world looking gauge?
Thanks

Gotta remember Smiths probably haven't changed in 40yrs or more & they are an excellent quality gauge, probably the most commonly used gauge in older/classic cars.

It's got nothing to do with the quality of their gauges, I just don't much like them. There has gotta be others though doesn't there?
