There was an original Air Pressure Gauge from GM for dashes that would have come on the 80 series trucks with Air Brakes. It would locate on the left hand side, in that dash.

Re: yet another 64 build thread haha
 

no way that would have been cool to find one do you know how high the psi gos on it????

Re: yet another 64 build thread haha
 

The dash on top is from the 50-80 series big trucks. Look at both side of this dash there's two large circle's with the three lines joined together. These covers unscrew from the back. Then you replace the covers with the factory Tach,Vacuum, Bat-O-Meter or Air Pressure Gauge. The tach installs one the right and either gauge goes on the left. The stock Air pressure gauge went to 150 psi. Look through the Historical Thread in 1963 Cabs section there's a picture of the Air Pressure gauge. If you go to Gallery there's a picture of my dash with the Vacuum and Tach. These Air Pressure Gauges are easier to find than the Vacuum Gauge. This picture below is compliments of "daverod"

This is the dash in my '65... the clock and the tach are not stock.

The clock keeps great time tho'... they were in there when I bought the truck.
