F600 cluster installed and finished

Post by la1031 »

This is kinda a project update but I know so many are looking at F600 clusters and a dash that has all the holes filled.

I have the headlights, wipers, and choke cable moved to the cluster.

Looks good! Did you have to use a different choke cable?

The guages are from the 70's they are Stewart Warner Stage 3 or stage III gauges. These were used in the first Shelby's and I think the first Lambo's. I still have alot of these, I kinda bought out ebay so I had extras.

The choke cable is from a Bronco because F100 cables are not long enough obviously. Good eye though.

I really like how clean it makes the dash look without the holes and knobs. This is how Ford should have do it !!

Sweet! What did you do to fill in the old dash holes? I have a couple holes in my dash from previous owners that I'd like to make disappear.

Hole filling is no secret either. Metal circles and a welder or fiberglass.
