Post by: chetbrz on May 03, 2008, 10:48:50 AM
No original Plymouth parts were modified to make this work.

Looks good but replacing those Phillips screws with slotted ones would make it look more vintage.

Tod,

The Old Plymouth gauge cap covers them up.

The patch work around the gauge flange isn't very pretty but strong and leak free.? Once installed this area isn't visible so I didn't go the extra mile to pretty it up.
