Gauge Cluster , Dash advice, help please

Hey, i have a 1960 chevy with the original gauge cluster, speedo works, has fuel gauge and temperature gauge only, and dummy lights for oil psi and generator. i would like to cut out the oil psi and generator spot like the other two to put gauges behind so it looks factory, i will either cut the original piece or get a new piece laser cut, cut out sheet metal and bead roll the details.. etc.. i was wondering if anyone else has done this b4, any pics or info? where can i get factory looking gauges-if i can? another idea i had was for my tach. i dont want to bolt my tach to the colum, to.. tacky.. haha. so i think im going to put it in the ash tray hole, will be a small tach, also wondering if anyone has done this before and what you think about it. a rectangle tach would be nice, but i will probably make a plate for a round tach and face it towards the driver, since i dont think i can get a tach to fit lol. even a half round would look right i think, from the hood of a late 60s gm car or sumthing. what do u guys think? show me what you did to b4, i looked around on here and seen alot of very nice clusters, just nothing like what i want really
