Re: tach and gauges
with that price you can get a decent set of after market gauges, but it depends if want a stock or custom look

Re: tach and gauges
I love the looks of the factory tach clusters and have them in my '77, my work beater Suburban, and my former work beater Suburban that is currently residing in the shed with a slipping transmission, but JEEZ, 295 bucks for used gauges seems pretty steep!
Maybe I've just been lucky with them, but I've found a bunch of them in the junkyard (mostly in medium duty trucks...C60' and C70's). I'd think you could piece something together for cheap.
