Just added some value

With the vacuum gauge and oil gauge going in Only thing now is I hope they both work and I didn't get duds. Not much of a loss tho, considering I got the whole vacuum cluster for free! Here are some pictures (YES! I know I need a new bezel)

Anyone know how hard vacuum gauges really are to find? Any production numbers on this option?

I would just paint the bezel before you put it back in, a little rattle can flat black would improve it a bunch. I think the smaller trucks didn't realy come with the vaccum guage but the large trucks did, so most that you find were swapped in from large truck clusters. I don't know if they available as an option or a dealer add on or anything for sure though.

Air pressure and vacuum guages were big truck only options 10-30 series did not get them, the cluster was used across the boards for all series trucks.
