While I was attending the Berger Chevrolet Special Delivery last Sunday,Dennis Barker has 30 of these unused Berger SS gage cluster faces. That is all that remained after the 100 Berger SS cars and 3 prototypes were made. He had a very cool idea to have people that were on hand at the event like Scott Settlemire,Helen Gibb,Matt Murphy,Matt Berger and Dennis Barker sign these gage faces and sell them. Very cool item and I don't know whether to install it or just frame it. Many of these sold quickly and my wife saw that I wanted one and picked up as a very early birthday gift. Even Scott Settlemire purchased one!Only signature not on them is Dale Berger since he just had hand surgury. [Smile]

Ok ,here is the reply I recieved from Dennis Barker on the gage overlays.Sorry people,I tried! [Frown]

"Greg,

I sent this earlier but to your old address and naturally it bounced back. I appreciate your help with the gauges but we only are selling them to people with Berger built cars or are very closely associated with us. We did not want them on the parts shelf for the general public to buy. I hope you understand. We have not sold any parts or pieces to our specialty cars and will not in the future. I did get your telephone message today and tried calling you but I wrote your number down wring from your voice mail. Thank You again for the pictures, they are awesome.

Thanks,"
