Didn't think I'd win it.

Post by 69rangerman »

Somehow I won this on ebay for 50.00 plus shipping. Good deal?

It was one of those deals where you bid figuring you won't win. Yesterday after I got home from having the truck towed the wife says "You won something on ebay". I kinda did a wince and she saw me and then said "Let me guess...it's a part for your non-operating truck".

:oops: heh heh...yeah honey..heh heh..ain't that funny (gulp).

I'd say it was a fair deal. It's a nice panel. The pods on each side aren't cut out, so it'll be much easier fitting aftermarket gauges.

That's a nice one, no empty holes. Your going to love those gauges, too. They are way easier to read then the stock ones. I have one in my '71 and have another for the '67 that I still need to paint, but my buddy is still welding up the toggle switch holes.

It's funny how you feel like a little kid in trouble with his mother when your put on the spot like that. :P

Thanks, I'm really going to enjoy not having a radiator hose clamp around my steering column to hold the tach, and guage panels below the dash.
