1973 Mustang – Project SportsRoof – This Just In #4 Gauges

By | | , , , , ,

Just before heading off on vacation, I sources a set of used gauges for the Mustang (#ProjectSportsRoof).  These are out of a 1973 Mustang and fit in to the dash.  If you recall there is a current set of gauges in the Mustang, however they are a newer connected set wedge into the slot where the original single gauges go.

Here is the current configuration.

Here is the current set of gauges. These individual units will look much better.

Drop me a note if you’ve had to clean out the hose for oil pressure gauges.

Thanks for reading.

    Hey man, I’ve been following your build and everything looks real good thus far.

    I’d say it isn’t worth it to try and clean that oil line. You can pick up a new hose kit for about $10. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00062YWLU/ref=pd_aw_sim_263_3?ie=UTF8&refRID=1ST7A2TN3XSVHFA3JB1D

    Or you can upgrade to a copper line kit for a few bucks more. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00UZ9HC2U/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1445462279&sr=8-1&pi=SX200_QL40&keywords=oil+pressure+line+kit&dpPl=1&dpID=51jQVtaj45L&ref=plSrch

    Personally, I’ve never used the copper, but it’s supposed to be more accurate because it won’t stretch like the vynil and will last forever.

    Also, is there a reason you decided to go with an ammeter over a more modern voltmeter gauge?

    Good luck on the build, bro.
