I'm updating the Cig 20 and would like to retain the original bezels but install new gauges. I've been told a certain model from Stewart Warner will fit, but not sure which one. The style used back in the early years with the "squared" black bezels sealed from the front of the guage rim instead of the backside.

Yes, I've considered converting to the standard gauge style but that would lose the classic look and cause me to replace the teak helm entirely.

Any thoughts?

FYI - the Cig 20 that Cig19 restored is the look I'm thinking.

See the helm pic on post #5

Maybe try salvaging the shrouds from your old gauges and use them with some of these, the mixture of the old school teak/shrouds with the newer style gauges would be pretty cool....

Or get a couple of these to put on top of the dash for the speedo/tach..

A setup similar to this was actually used by Cigarette as an option in that era..

Yup. that's kinda like plan B. The Livorsi's, Gaffrig's and Autometer's all have too large of a rim to fit in the existing bezels. If I go with something like that I would pull the teak dash panel and re-fab with new cut-outs.

Here's how I accomplished it before (post #6). On the '79 I could not replace the teak. So I custom fabbed over-sized bezels to cover the larger holes.

I could do that again, but with the current spacing almost all the bezels would have to be ground down on adjacent sides in order to fit.

The 79 looks GREAT!!

BTW, the "enhanced" old school logo is exactly how wanted to do the logos on the side of my 24. Would you happen to have a copy of that artwork?
