I know that Nova has console gauges also but are a different color than camaros. Mine are silver but I found some with black faces that I like better. Please let me know.

I think Camaro console gauges were Silver and Nova console gauges were Black. But I am not 100% sure on this. My guages are Silver.

Correct RJ, Camaro's were silver and Nova's were black.

What are you going to do with the silver face guages if you swap em out? Just curious...

Magazine published an article on very late build camaros having black face console gauges. I guess they had a couple original late cars with them. Remember its very easy to change out the faceplates on those to convert to silver.

Where was it you found those Black gauge faces? What did they cost you (if you don't mind me asking)? I prefer them to the "correct" silver ones. I have a set of silver repros that I've never installed because I was hoping to find the blacks. Trade?....Hmmmm?
