hey everyone..a question from a modular guy..is it possible..in any way, to bolt in 1967-69 speedos and tachs to a 96 gt and make them work? Any regular wire harness or would it take a custom job? any ideas or thoughts? thanks, Paul

I don't know man, that would be like bolting a 66 steering wheel to your 96. It'd probably look outta place but it is a really cool concept. I'd might try using autometer gauges instead, they look somewhat similar and, I think, are more accurate. You'd probably have a difficult time with the wiring and the speedo cable. I'm not really sure if any of your gauges have a computer influence on them, that would deffinetly effect your project. Plus, you'd have to worry about calibrating the correct voltages for the sending units and so forth so things like your temperature won't be off. Custom job all the way!!!
