AutoMeter Old Tyme Black 54-55 GMC Truck Billet Panel/Gauge Kit - 3-1/8in. (x2) & 2-1/16in. (x4)

If you're restoring a 1954 or 1955 GMC truck and want to add essential instrumentation with a classic look, this AutoMeter Old Tyme Black Billet Panel and Gauge Kit is a solid choice. This kit is designed to fit directly into your truck's dash, giving you a clean way to monitor critical engine functions. It brings together a well-built billet aluminum panel with a set of AutoMeter's popular Old Tyme Black gauges, offering a blend of modern reliability and vintage aesthetics.

The panel itself is machined from solid billet aluminum, which means it's strong and resists corrosion, ensuring it looks good for years to come. It's pre-cut to house two 3-1/8 inch gauges and four 2-1/16 inch gauges, giving you flexibility in what you monitor. AutoMeter's Old Tyme Black gauges feature a classic black dial, white pointer, and perimeter lighting that gives them that authentic vintage feel, perfect for these classic trucks. While the specific gauges included in this kit can vary, this setup typically allows for monitoring vital signs like oil pressure, water temperature, fuel level, and voltmeter, or even adding a tachometer and speedometer if you choose compatible gauge sizes.

This kit is a significant upgrade for your classic GMC, providing the information you need to keep your engine running smoothly while maintaining the truck's period-correct appearance. Installation will involve wiring the gauges to their respective sensors and the vehicle's electrical system, and mounting the panel into the dash. For a project like this, it's always a good idea to consult the specific instructions that come with the kit and gauges for detailed wiring and installation guidance.
