GEN II 70-78 Camaro gauge mounting solutions from New Vintage

[marks914]

As promised, here is the GENII 70-78 Camaro gauge mounting solution we have been working on. The package mounts 2 3-3/8” gauges and 4 2-1/16” gauges in the stock location, retaining the stock turn signals switches and dash panel. The laser-cut and formed mount bolts to the factory mounting screws. The bracket is formed to follow the countour of the original dash.
The only thing left to do is find a donor vehicle to test fitment and decide what to do with the stock shift indicator area. We have considered using one of our indicator panels in there to fill the void. Looking for input there.
Thanks, look foreword to any input

Pricing for the basic mount should be around $100.00

have you checked the interest on nastyz28 ? on a pro-touring site i dont think this will move much because honestly the stock gauge panel looks dated in a pt build.

Yes definitely try NastyZ and also Team Camaro. You should have a lot of interest on both of those sites. You might also be asked if you have, or will have, anything available for the later 2nd gen dash.

Try nastyZ28. I think that looks great.

Thanks guys,
just to let you know this is not a stock replacemet but a mount to install our aftermarket and custom gauges in the stock location. That way you can keep the stock plate that actually fits and retain the controls. You can run any of our 3-3/8 and 2-1/16" gauges.
Ill have to se what it takes to be a sponsor over there

I like it, mostly because I am working on a 5.3 swap in my 1976 camaro and could benefit from something like that.

Right now I plan on using factory guages and a cable x controller to convert the signal to my stock cable driven speedomenter.

Is there anyway you could make the shifter opening accept the stock shifter indicator? Looks like there is plenty of room. I'm am using a 4L60e in my car and have already bought the OD shifter adapter kit with the center mount indicator.

I would like to try and keep that if all possible

Well I threw a link on nastyz to this thread. Check out the interest over there in only few hours.

YES......please make this. And in the shift indicator area put blinkers (one above the other, arrows) a neutral light, a high beam light and park brake light.

I will buy one when they are ready. And gauges too.

Thanks jorgensen, I found the link on nastyz.

Hi Guys,
I think that the stock shift indicator can be installed or we can install a custom indicator panel:


Right now the hold up is we need to get a car in our shp for final fitment.
