Muscle Car Dashes
Like most, the dashes on our project cars are either cracked or in need of a complete overhaul. However, Route 66 Motorsports has come up with an easy solution. Using this billet dash bezel insert, you can now easily install aftermarket gauges into your '69 Camaro or '70-72 Chevelle SS, El Camino SS, or Monte Carlo SS. A little trimming to the factory dash and a set of gauges is all that's needed to go from factory bland to modified muscle. The inserts are made in the United States from 6061 billet aluminum and come in a variety of finishes, including raw machine and black powdercoat. Custom colors are also available at an additional cost. The bezels include LEDs, all the necessary hardware, instructions, and even a template for a simple and clean install.
