Sorry I really don't know what happened with that last post it got all weird so I just started a new one here. I usually until electronics in my power wagon and that was a custom panel. I used it in a customer's Ford truck and it used the original front facade.. lifetime warranty decent customer service and all the sending units to make it work. I'll use it in my duster when I redo it. There's an adjustment for voltage and adjustment for different sending units for the gas and the calibration for the speedometer if you're using different gears or tire sizes. Also if you want it has 60 ft time and quarter mile time and stuff like that... If you can wait maybe 25 to 30 days they'll have their Black Friday sale and at least 25% off... Also there's threads on the install in the a body one is fairly new...

Clue me in, what’s the automated invision set up? I’m halfway through restoring my stock cluster and **** keeps breaking. I am considering aftermarket gauges.
I do like the Inteltronix, looks stock when it’s off and like nightrider when your cruising.

I forgot to add using the Intelteoix in my power wagon I was able to use that $85 brand new complete hot rod wiring harness which I'll use on my duster as well and get rid of that 50-year-old crusty wiring...
That's my issue as well it's stupid expensive the stock look and I don't see the point it's ugly as well. If they only kept the RT dash from 70 sigh.
Yeah I'm going to sit on my wallet for a few weeks and then maybe nab one or the other. I didn't realize it had those features that does make a difference.

I think the display is nice, I don’t like the way it looks in the bezel. Weird because they designed the bezel, but it looks like they glued a Tesla screen onto a factory bezel. The Inteltronix gets my vote.

For real, I just spend $60 on a Bezel that needs to be restored, and then I broke the pins off the back of the circuit board. I really don’t want to spend another $50 to $100 just to have the stock look and 45 year old gauges and wiring.
I’m thinking of restoring the bezel and nabbing the Inteltronix setup when the Black Friday deals roll in.

I think you'll get a choice between white green red and blue for a background color. I did white on my truck cuz my truck is white but I did Green on my customers Ford pickup because it was Green..
I watched a bit how hard is this to wire in?

It's not..

Just a power and a ground and one lead leading to each thing you got around and it's on ground..
One wire to the fuel sending unit and the ground the speed of sending unit needs a signal wire the power and a ground. The oil pressure needs a signal in the ground and the water temperature needs the signal. And the RPM needs to signal wire. It's pretty simple.

Awesome man, I will be following along!
I want to keep the rear defrost as it's such a rare option. That said I'm thinking I can relocate the motor to center. I want speakers why they did this I have no idea sigh. Bad idea not very customer friendly.....

The round 150 speedo in the 340 cars was sick.... looks fast! Lol
Why I'm going to either keep where it is or slightly relocate it want speakers lol!
Finally getting the panels repaired still have to do the door tops. I at least have one door top no damage so I have some kind of template. I need photos for the front of the rear sail panels where it meets the end and doors each side please. There ugly but will clean up well and I can either oer vinyl paint or cover in vinyl.
