Had Redline replace my clock with a tach, G-Car did the bezel work

I've always liked the "Wild Wild West" font on the '62 Plymouths! I'm thinking, it's the only year that they used it?

This is a 63 Plymouth cluster, although the 62 will fit they are different in the gauge layout, my car is a 63 Fury convertible...

Putting mine on the right side of steering column with the shift light on top of column.

Those restored clusters are ****!!

i mounted mine on the dash.......used heavy duty velcro..........it was an experiment but it worked great....doesnt move.........and no holes if its ever removed......

 

[PRND21]

Holes were already in the dash. I made a mount and a backing plate for under the dash. Not much room to place it anywhere else, maybe under the dash.

Some holes are UNresistable

Lots of differences between 62/63 and 64/65. That being said if you going to race it and its quick you need to have it in the line of sight as 2nd comes up quick. I didn't want holes in the top of the dash though. So I fabbed this up. completely adjustable.

DVW, can you post pictures of your entire instrument cluster? It looks like you did something custom with the whole cluster.
Thanks!

And the rest of the car, for that fact. I haven't seen it in awhile. I'm just crazy about that color!

i made this mount to fit around the column. my dash pad is original and in very nice shape; so, no holes will be put in the pad.

Flat aluminum panel replaces the stock cating. A shift delete plate was cut out and filled with a ring from a spare bezel creating a space for the 5th gauge. Shifter was moved to the right side of the dash for cage clearance. Shifter bezel was fabled from the inner portion of the shift bezel and the outer portion of the heater bezel.

I had a hard time looking at gauges at WOT,HAD 9 gauges with a large tach like DVW and installed a new dash pad with no tach and shift light instead mounted on the column.

in the clock location on the '64 Dodge. Redline did mine whe i had them convert to a volt meter last year.

Just finishing the wiring on a 63 wagon (NSS race car) for a friend. The shift light is mounted on the top windshield frame directly in the line of sight.

My 64 wagon..

I bought a 3 3/8 tach for my '62 and I'm trying to find a good mounting spot. On the top of the column is too tight. (steering wheel interference) Man, I don't want to drill any holes in the dash. Maybe under the dash would work. Just not real visible. I did see one mounted on the hump.
So, any suggestions and pictures? Please only 1962 - 1965

Mounted mine on the steering column.
