Dave - That could be 90% of homes in The Shire.

Here is something that I covered in a Custom Kitcar article but might be of interest here: The Ferrari speedo and tacho cost a small fortune so I got a couple of second-hand Smiths gauges from a Jag wrecker and simply removed the dials and scanned them on the computer. Using plain old MS Word I made up Veglia (Ferrari) faces and stuck them on thin metal dial plates to replace the Jag faces.

There is a chap in the US who installs LSx motors into old Jags and he sells interface modules that wire up to the Smiths gauges.
