All right vacuum gauge gurus
Which of these 2 gauges is right for my 65.The one on the right has needle stops, the one on the left is more fluorescent green.

Neither.
Send them both to me and you won't have to worry about it anymore. ;o) The left one looks '64-'66, the right one looks '60-'63 Greg.

Re: All right vacuum gauge gurus
I have an air pressure gauge which came from a '65. The font matches your right one. Note the "2" and "3" . Also the needle style matches. Now one would assume that all gauges would have matching styles, so I would guess that the right one is correct for you.

Interesting, the gmpartswiki parts books list several vacuum gauges for different applications. The only description for left side dash installation is 1508976 65-66.

Re: All right vacuum gauge gurus
The part # is 5653435 on the gauge on the right which is a 65-66 C-60 gauge. I may use the one on the left though as I like the look of it better.

Re: All right vacuum gauge gurus
Just wanted to let you know that I have used Budman's overlay decals before and he does an excellent job on them and for a reasonable price.
