So I was looking I to replacing my current speedo with a unit with more of a wow factor when people see it at car shows that still looks somewhat original and I found a good 4 1\2 inch 200 mph gauge from speed hut and it is also a GPS unit so I can put whatever rear end gear and tire size without having to do any speedo gear guessing... The only down side is that in long tunnels you lose your speedo... Now worries here in west Texas lol.

Looks pretty good. It would help to ditch the radioactive sign. Unless that's the theme your going for.

Yes it is the look I am going for... I don't plan on selling my car so I am building it as I please . I put this up here to let people know they can replace a stock unit that may be inop, or inaccurate to all hell with a 20 mph bounce like the 72 sprint fast back I drove in high school. They offer it in 120, 140,160,180,200,260 mph customized how you want it.
