Postwhore, Pimpin Ain't Easy
Alright, after all the discussion earlier, he's finally getting it finished.
I've been having one of my friends from the TCCoA forums, Scott Hrbacek from Eureka, MO, try to build some gauge faces for my truck since this summer. He finally got a cluster a few weeks ago, and he's pretty much done with the design. If you want them, you can probably get them built soon. I'm gonna see if he can also add in the Bronco emblem, if someone has a good 1-color design of the bucking bronco in a large size. Here's what he told me yesterday:

The gauges are acid-free paper with staging gel for the color, printed numbers and dashes, and he also uses, I believe, a negative to prevent the color coming through anywhere but the dashes, then that all is covered in laminate. He's made SEVERAL for other vehicles. I believe my sets on my Cougar were 8 and 52 or something, and I'm sure he's done several after that, since it has almost been 2 years after installing my last set. I got a different set because I wanted a different design. If you want to take a look at some of them, go here:

Some custom gauges: http://www.geocities.com/slhrbacek/Custom.html
Pricing: http://www.geocities.com/slhrbacek/Pricing.html
The Pricing may not be the same, but I'm not sure if even he knows what he'll charge. He's a very honest and intelligent guy, and he builds car crushers (which I've seen a couple pictures of), so these are pretty simple to do.
Let me know what kind of interest people have around here. I'll try to add pictures when I get them, probably within the next day or so.

This is for the 6-gauges with tach. If it's the same style, they'll fit. Volt and engine temp, oil pressure and fuel, speedometer, tachometer. You can check out my website for a stock gauge picture if you're still uncertain of what the specifications are:I've got the prototype Large text style faces installed in the cluster that I picked up.
Send me an email address and I will email the first photos of them to you.
