[AJD] OT - truck parts needed, thanks for replies

I put the 160 MPH Cockpit series in my Jeep.  It makes some people nervous.
I do have a 460 hp Chevy under the hood, with a fiberglass body.  It moves
along without much effort.

Lou,

The gauges look very nice, especially with domed glass!!!  So cool.  Not 
sure if a 120mph speeedo guage would be appropriate, or should i say, it 
might not be approriate to take the 1930 White up to 120mph.    :-)

Kreig
