I was going to modify my gauge set up to the later style ( shown on the
wilkinson catolouge) Where the gauges are spread left to right in sted of
top to bottom. Wilkinson sells a replacement for the lower section of the
center dash and the gauge face plate

part #14004CC WHICH IS CARBON FIBRE THEY HAVE THE SAME TTHING IN  FIBRE
GLASS BUT NO PICTURE. i ASSUME IT IS A 73 /74 GTS
