Classic Gauges
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?

VDO do a classic range.
So do Autometer..... http://www.rocketindustries.com.au/s...6amp%3B+Access. Plenty of options depending on your budget!

There is no budget! But I wasn't aware that brands like AM did classic looking stuff. Cheers mate
