Thread: 49 More-door build

Tweet

Thanks, Steve; for a 62 year old car it's not too bad. As far as the gauges I'm still deciding. The speedo, temp, and oil press are all mechanical so problems there. I think the amp gauge doesn't care what the voltage since it just measures current draw so that just leaves the fuel gauge. The previous owner had the fuel tank cleaned out and coated but lost the sending unit. I don't know if I'm going to get a new sending unit and use a small 6v-12v converter for the stock gauge or I also saved the gauge and tank from the Buick. It looks like the tank will work in the factory location so I might just build something to mount the gauge under the dash and use it. It's free and the wiring is already right for it. This thing is on an ultra tight budget!
