Excellent choice on the cherry, I have an Allison where the dash is moulded right into the body with a thin wood looking laminate on top, took off the laminate and used cherry veneer plywood. It started as 1/2” but I planed it down to a 1/4”, came up really nice
I put a plastic zip tie around the bushing instead of the ring, , it seemed like the easiest thing to do, still working fine
Spike, just saw a gps speedo, which I think is the same size and appearance as ours, for 115.00 on e-bay, could be interesting
Have the same speedo and the same trouble. Shipped it to NSI in Greensboro N C. They fixed it, just be sure to tell them your tire size
Looking for ldj, am back at car site,you had questions. Best to e- mail me at gordwaples@gmail.com Gordon
Bad timing here , won’t be back home for 10 days , but peddles are far from fire wall as they need to be to work, all questions welcome, no prob , but like I said won’t be back at car site till 10 days
Had the same problem, mine has a GT steering wheel, had to take it off and tighten 2 screws on a swivel plate on the top of the steering column, once you get to it it becomes self evident, but that was just my case , hope thats all your’s is
Thanks Roy for making the light come on. We maybe know now why there isn’t many Allison’s out there,,,they keep running out of gas, Lol !!! Great article on the subject, will do like the others and go with the fuel cell under the ” hood”. This site is good reading when you don’t have a problem. When you have a problem it is “great” reading! Thanks again for responding, Gord
Mike,you said you haven’t run into many Allison owner’s , I read where there was was only 65-70 made so we can assume there was 65 questionable gas tanks in them, maybe poured the Fiberglas a little thin for a tank? Don’t get me wrong , love the car, nothing is perfect. Mine is silver with blue fenders,10,000 mi, looks great, new to the game also. Will approach this tank thing by process of elimination,will keep you posted Mike. Gord
Thanks for the comeback Mike.Must have been a common fault in the vehicle .I read a bit ago where the Gas Monkeys restored an Allison and it had the same problem and they just put in an extra tank like you mentioned.It was a beauty, by chance is that the one you purchased? By the way great site Paul, very informative!
