NSRA Appreciation Day - Boyne City, MI

The turnout was beyond anything we expected! Every year the crowd grows and this year is no exception.  With atleast 70 vehicles displayed during the day Classic Instruments was the place to be. 

Best of Show was Doug Hilderbrant's Chevy, which displayed custom made gauges by Classic Instruments that matched his seats.  A lot of thought went into this car and well worth every bit of the effort!

NSRA Show - Bakersfield, CA

Totally eccentric - bet this bus catches the eye everywhere it goes!  It is absolutely one of my favorites.  Bright yellow with custom built passengers.  Who would have thought???? 

You will notice Classic's Tetra Series compliments many dashes here in Bakersfield.  Dave Williamson's 1937 Ford is no exception with gold bezels surrounding the gauges.  This SIBLIME car even has a custom fit compartment in the trunk for your cooler.  Now that is thinking forward, not a wonder this was one of the Winners Circle picks. 

Floyd Slape drives this 1957 Chevy Bel Air around Bakersfield daily.  What a ride!  Note the detail in this classic, including the white Tetra Series gauges in the dash surrounded by all that chrome.   

Outside or in you are bound to find Classic Instruments.  We are proud to grace the dashes of many Hot Rods shown in Bakersfield.  Inside you will find Bill and Judy Mullins proudly displaying gauges and answering visitors questions.  

Here is one of the selections from the Winners Circle, a 1959 Rambler American equipped with Classic Instruments' Tetra Series.  This nostalgic ride is the pride of George and Mary Anderson. 

Now how often do you see a 1952 Hudson Hornet?  This sweet cruise is owned by Thomas Brelsford of Cool, CA.  Classic sure looks good in this Hornet!!

What a perfect day for a show!  The Del Mar fairgrounds held such a variety of amazing vehicles that it was hard to decide where to go first.  Selecting a nominee for the Trophy Dash Award was virtually impossible, on the Home Page is a link to view all award winners.  Below are just a few of the vehicles displayed this year. 

    Baby blue always catches the eye and Skip Wright's '55 Chevy of  is no exception.   

His white Belera series gauge has custom graphics and spun pointer hubs for more Class....

Harold & Rhea Schrader of New Jersey own this 1935 Ford that sports custom gauges with unique pointers.  Completely fabulous!!!

Now here is the complete package.  A RED HOT '57 Chevy owned by Les Davidson with Classic White series gauges on the dashboard.  The contrast is a perfect contrast. 

Goodguys Show - Pleasanton, CA

The cutest kids were at the Pleasanton show this year!  We would like to thank everyone that stopped by the booth to visit, including these two little tykes sporting Classic Instruments wear.    

James Hetfield's "Slow Burn" is the 2010 West Coast Custom of the Year.  This 1936 Auburn Speedster is a real trophy!  Truly flawless!!  Gauges by Classic Instruments grace the dashboard bringing a final touch to one of our favorites.

"Second Chance" is owned by Eric Steinbrecher.  His 1969 Chevy Pickup is a dream come true.  This little truck ROCKS with the Bomber series gauges by Classic to guide his way.

Sleek as a Gazelle, 1929 brought out some fantastic vehicles!  You may see Juan Castro cruisin Pleasanton in this sweet two-toned classic from yesteryear.

We can see why this '39 Lincoln Zephyr in cream and silver is a member of the "winners circle".  The sleek lines bring you to an interior graced with Classic gauges.

"POSSESSED" earned the America's Most Beautiful Roadster award at the GNRS.  A 100% hand-built 1930's inspired custom touring car owned by Mike & Dianna Dingman of Moorpark displayed gauges built by Classic Instruments.  It just doesn't get finer than this! 

This two tone 37' Ford was built by Dominator Street Rods of Tracy, CA.  The sleek aluminum bezel showcases a custom set of Classic Instrument gauges. 

The brilliant Candy Root Beer 55' Chevy Nomad Wagon was built by Roy Brizio Street Rods.  It features the Classic Instruments Belera Series set in black.  Absolutely gorgeous!
