Digital Gauges
Hi folks
I recently purchased a Volvo C303 cab chassis that needs a " lot " of restoration work. It appears to have some gauges missing on the dashboard. I heard of a product called Madman gauges, i think they are digital, but was wondering if anyone knew if they would work on the C3 series ?
www.madman.co.za
I was pretty lucky with the purchase, i got 2 copies of the Volvo C Series service master manuals and a copy of the parts catalogue.
I was hoping to be able to get most parts still ? My Volvo dealer here in Australia says he can't get parts for these anymore.
Cheers
Mick

Hi there
I think i may have all the gauges i need to complete the project (which is a long way off i might add !!) so i'm not too fussed about it at the moment. The other thing i hhave to consider is that my volva has a diesel conversion, so i have to get gauges and sensors that will run off the motor and gearbox.
I'm lucky enough to have a copy of the parts listing & service Manual for the truck.
Hope to chat soon
Cheers

Hi Vince
Don't know about the dull knives, but i have been known to do some stupid things !!!
Thanks for the help with the picture (much appreciated).
It' funny you mention about the radiator (it doesn't have one - well an original Volvo one) !! It has a massive radiator with twin thermo fans that was "attached" to the front supposedly to cool the diesel motor it has. The truck was used to spray crops with a huge sprayer on the back, they drove at about 10 klms an hour, hence the need for a big radiator.
The plan is to sell the big radiator and get a 3 core radiator to fit in the same spot as the original one would have. I hope the plan works ?
