Planning the build of a mid-fifties Chevy pickup truck? This Auto Meter dash update will help integrate new instruments in your ride.<\/p>\n

The dashboard design of the 55 – 59 Chevrolet “Task Force” trucks is regarded by many enthusiasts as one of the hallmarks of that generation of pickups. Whether you’re working on a resto-mod or a full blown hot rod, issues of installation and compatibility where newer performance engines and transmissions are concerned are likely to cause you some headaches.<\/p>\n

Historically the unique V-shaped opening of the original speedometer cowl in the dashboard made the upgrade to better aftermarket instruments a difficult task.<\/p>\n

To help with this, Auto Meter has introduced their Nostalgia Series Five Gauge Mount.<\/p>\n

The company says this replacement instrument mounting solution for the original speedometer opening allows fitment of your choice of a 3 3\/8″ Speedometer, Tach, or Tach\/Speedo Combo and four additional 2 1\/16″ gauges. Specifically engineered brackets and replacement trim ensure Direct Fit mounting points to the dash structure and perfect gauge orientation.<\/p>\n

Specially designed black faceplate hides integrated LED turn signal and highbeam indicators until they’re in use for a subtle appearance retaining functionality without the need to drill holes.<\/p>\n

According to Auto Meter, the finished result has all the appearances of a factory installed option.<\/p>\n

Nostalgia Series Five Gauge Mount for 55 – 59 Chevrolet Truck are available as part number 2208 from your local Auto Meter dealer. Pricing starts under $200 USD.<\/p>\n
