If you’re looking to upgrade the dashboard of your classic Ford Pickup from 1967 to 1972, the Dakota Digital Series III instrument system is a solid choice. This isn’t just about looks; it’s packed with tech that makes driving a lot more enjoyable and informative. The high-brightness vacuum fluorescent displays are not only easy to read but also built to last. You won’t have to worry about them fading or malfunctioning on you.

This full 6-gauge system fits right into your existing bezel (though the bezel isn’t included, just a heads up). It’s a straightforward swap that gives your ride a modern touch while keeping that vintage vibe intact.

Specifications:
