Holy great find!!
For those of you that have been following my tach dash install thread, you'll know that I scored a rather nice entire cluster (w/ the all chrome bezel & front) for $10.00. The only drawback was that the chrome finish was a little dull around the edges of the bezel and the printed circuit was burned out. Well, I didn't pay much attention to it since I really only wanted a few of the bulb holders when I bought it so I could put them into mine. Well, today I was contemplating putting the chrome bezel into my truck so I was cleaning it up and noticed that there was a metal piece that came out the back, and did a 90* bend and had a fitting on it. "Hmm, mine doesn't have that, and it's in the vacuum gauge location, but from the front there is no gauge...????" So I'm taking it apart and low & behold the gauge IS there and it's mint! So I've got a vacuum gauge cluster!!! Scooooooore!!!!!!! So all I have to do is cut out the inner bezel where the vacuum gauge goes, and then hook that bish up and I'm stylin!
