This is a mock up of my idea for an on board tuner for the "Double Cross" build. Customer wanted easier access for the batteries, he would have had to take all four screws out to get to the battery. The beauty ring is from a MotoMeter radiator cap from a 1929 Ford C cab delivery truck my dad hot rodded out when I was a kid.

Thanks, if you want to do this you'll have to find an old MotoMeter on E-bay, get a Snark tuner for about $20 and drill out a 1 5/8" hole with a Forstener bit. With a little file work you can get it to seat in there nice and tight like. It is pretty sweet having a tuner you can just look down and see.

oooh, baby! (however, my auto-restoring dad would just about faint to see the radiator cap put to such a use.)

Nice work and great idea!
