If you're looking to upgrade the dashboard of your 1939 Chevy, the VHX Systems are a game changer. This isn’t just another set of gauges; it’s a complete overhaul of how you view your dashboard. The first thing you’ll notice is the triple-plated chrome machined aluminum housing that gives it a classic yet modern touch. The fully lit needles and backlit faces are not only eye-catching but also super functional, making it easy to read everything at a glance, day or night.

Now, let’s talk tech. Under the hood of this setup, you’ve got micro-controlled precision stepper motors and solid-state sensors. What does that mean for you? Unmatched accuracy and reliability. You can customize the display feedback to suit your style, which is a nice touch for those of us who like to personalize our rides. And hey, it’s backed by a limited lifetime warranty, so you know Dakota Digital stands by their stuff.

Manufactured right here in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, the VHX Series has really shaken things up in the instrumentation world. It’s designed to fit perfectly into your classic Chevy, making installation a breeze.
