  Ha-Ha, Good one!!! Mark...Not the one!! I have seen these awhile back on e-bay but at the time I just started on there!! Besides, American only, right? I had a '69 Catalina and I have a '70 Catalina. Just lamps....... I would love to get my hands on some though as I would put them on all my cars if I could.

I scored a perfect 69' Rally Cluster for $100 two years ago. But I'm not sure I'll even use it when the time comes.
I kind of like the standard underdash trio look.

  Who said anything about a '67? I have 2 '70 Ponchos here as well and one of them is a 2+2 Rag!!! Besides, you do realize I did deal with computers when I installed injection in 3 of my Pontiacs. If I were going to adapt this one into a '67, this should be alot easier than the injection systems I had to adapt into the cars for the efi to work. I would hope anyway! Are you trying to avoid the adoption??? (lol)

These clusters do show up on Ebay every few months. Definitely worth having! Sorry Vince, I forgot you had a 70 as well.

A factory cluster is always one of the nicest options you can add to any car. As far as these US clusters we know in 69's we have Todd's Laurentian and Dave Plummer's Laurentian/2+2 on board.

  I would be thinking too! If you can get $250us, by all means go for it!! Like C2 said, I would stop at that $150-$200 range myself. Maybe what I would get you and Todd to do is make up a lif like stencil so I can place it over my existing cluster to make it look like a ralley cluster!!! Good idea?? (lol)
 I do have a certified cluster out of an 1970 RCMP Strato here that I am going to install, if I don't get a gauges cluster.
 I wonder, did they make a certified gauges cluster all in one?

It wouldn't surprise me if there were certified gauge clusters in the U.S. That would be a find!

 I think I'll hang onto it. We'll see what happens when I'm at the dash assembly stage. It is a nice clean looking cluster as far as the layout goes.
Do you have a picture of the Certified speedo, if I remember right, you had posted a shot of it at one time but I can't seem to find it.
I've yet to see a 69-70 Rally with speedminder cluster. I once saw a 68 or 67 with it though. Now a Rally with speedminder and Certification,  that would be a find!

I have a number of these ralley guage clusters for 1970, even one with the speed minder option.  There's one that's kind of rusty that I should put on ebay on of these days.

There are some wiring changes required when going from the standard speedo to the ralley guage cluster, nothing super complicated but be prepared.

I'd never seen a "Certified Speedometer" cluster before, then there was one on ebay last fall.  The reserve was something like $150 US but it sold.  By looking at the feedback, a speedo collector bought it.  Came out of an unmarked 70 Laurentian or Strato-Chief, detective car.  (I ended up buying the turbo 400 from the vendor)

Here's a post on plug wiring changes,

Standard to Rally

Todd used it on his conversion, and claims that it worked!

Could you post a shot of your 70' Rally clusterwith speedminder Clint?
I'd love to see it.
