Interior Mods - New Gauge Cluster

It was important for me to stay with the original "vertical" arrangement of the Veglia Borletti gauges.

I added an Oil Temperature gauge (the one that was used for the Mangusta and GT5 Pantera), an analogue clock (hand built by Nicholas Rios to match my existing gauges) and a Volt Meter ... all Veglia Borletti, which (as I discovered) are VERY difficult to source.

I plan to add a 52mm 7,000 RPM tachometer to the top slot. I have a custom built tach on order from the Tach Shack.

Heater Core ... on hold

I never use the heater ... and my A/C has been gutted. (Next winter will see the front-mount condensor unit go in - along with a new compressor, dryer and lines.) So, even though I have heater 'shut off' valves, I decided to remove and cap the lines for this year ... and free up a little more space for my new Delco si12 alternator ... AND lose some more weight.

Purists will think I am nuts ... but whatever.
