I am now the proud owner of a 1965 valiant signet,original 273 4 bbl.The previous owner has done about 70% of the resto. But i am having a couple of electrical issues ie.(gauge lights,have oil and that is it.) i have put in new bulbs and even tried the extra cluster with no luck.Any help in the right direction would be appreciated.

Welcome!

Have you tried any aftermarket gauges that you know work? If none of them work, it could be a grounding issue for the cluster.

That little 273 can make some good power. You'll have fun with it.

Im thinking that it could be a ground problem also.The guys at the shop said to check the fuse box.I have looked all over that interior for a fuse box and i don't see anything anywhere in there.Any clues?

most of my elec. issues were due to corrosion.u have to be really picky with cleaning all connections.
