This is what I have: http://mc-machine.com/79dash/79dash.htm


Can't find the pic I had of mine that I'd uploaded...but I had mine anodized to match the factory dash black and grey.

Evlgt85-

You might be swaying my decision. I did not know the signals are already fabricated into the gauge package you showed!!

If you find the picture of yours painted, let me know. I guess one could powder coat the metal, as well to any color. (But would look best, dark gray, black!)

I'll try and dig up the pics. Are you one of the multiple Ohio Mercury Rising guys? Amazing how many Capris there are per capita in Ohio!

Anyway, I also had a little bit of custom work done to mine with a little switch plate I plan to use eventually. If I can't find the pics, I'll try and take some this weekend. Unfortunately, the car is stuck in the garage, but I'll do my best with lighting

i dont know about you guys, but it kinda bothers me seeing a 10k tach when our cars cant go over 7, ya know? Too bad they dont offerall these choices with a 8k tach instead.

You can order whatever tach you want, Auto Meter has 8k tachs.

My car has only been to 6800. With this motor, that's probably as far as I'll let it go. In the future *shrug* only time and money will tell.
