What are you going to do about the rust this time around? And what's diff about an RV cluster?

Yeah, getting that Corvair sealed up like a modern engine is going to be a challenge.

The leaky windshield that caused all this rust was replaced many years ago. I bought the floor pieces from LMC to weld in then floor is getting Rhino’d so that should stop any future problems when the floor is wet.

The cluster is just a newer one from a 1989 Suburban and the last of the cable driven speedos. Ya know, they were known as R/V’s instead of C/K’s from ’88-’91.
