If you Google “Corvette with way too many gauges,” guess what comes up!  I’d love to see a close up to know what each one is.  How many systems can you monitor once you get past mph, rpm, fuel level, fuel pressure, coolant temp, oil temp, transmission oil temp, oil pressure, manifold vacuum???  Altimeter?  Inclinometer?  Brake fluid pressure?  Diff temp?

I was a flight engineer on C141 cargo aircraft for 23 years.  That jet had four engines and I did not have that many gauges to watch.

That’s more gauges that the Luscomb in which I learned to fly!  

 

Perry, check out the dash of a Silverstone.

Yeah, sure looks like one of the aircraft I used to fly? Just pull back on the steering wheel at about 50-60 and rotate for take off.

I was looking online for an answer to Bruce’s question about what may have motivated him to add gauges to his ride and cam across this one.  It is supposedly an MGB. 

 

For you folks that fly or have flown a plane this may strike a nerve….
