I didn't think of it that way but it sounds good. I wish oil was only a dollar a pound

[mo]

Sounds good. Let me know what figure you come up with.

Sorry I cannot accept that offer. I will hold out for asking price until next Tuesday July 8th.

mo will get a chance at this if I don't get asking price. I may have some others that are not this nice I could sell for $60.00 but it will take some time to look for them. I am traveling for the holiday through the weekend. I will let you know.

Thank you,
Tom

I will take $70.00 shipped for this gauge. It is the closest thing you will find to NOS quality.

mo will have first chance and I will give him 48 hrs to respond to this post with "I will take it"

I have other 80 lb gauges I will post soon that are not as nice for less.

Take care,
Tom

Yes I posted it and it has sold already. I may have some others that are decent but it is going to take me some time to dig them out and post. I have a few other things going on now.

I also have several in my Oregon inventory and will be there in mid Sept, if you are not in a rush.

Thank you for the interest,
Tom

Nope not in a hurry, let me know when you have the time. Thanks

Here is the next in line for 80 lb gauges that I currently have access too. This one needs a face restoration to be real nice but the mechanical's are in great condition. It would be OK for an everyday driver.

I would like $50.00 shipped for this one and will offer it to hdff first. If he passes, I will put this in a separate thread for its own sale.

I can offer this gauge with the face restored but it will add $50.00 to the price, making it $100.00.

I may have a nicer one in Oregon but it will be late September before I can get to that inventory to check.

Thank you,
Tom

i'll wait for the nicer one pm me when you find it please. I don't have a vac gauge now do I need to change out a cluster backplate to get it to fit in?

If you don't find a nicer one before I can check my inventory in Oregon, I will get back with you.

As far as a vacuum gauge addition, you will need not only the vacuum gauge, but the front tin, the vacuum lens and the small rear tin.

I can sell you any or all of the above parts if needed.

Take care,
Tom

ok now for the really dumb question, is this something that can easily be done if I have some mechanical knowledge?

You can do it in the dash but it is a little tough getting behind the cluster with it installed.

Looking at the photo I attached, you will need a 5/16 wrench to remove your existing oil line. Then with a 9/16 wrench, just loosen the bigger nut on the back of the gauge but don't remove it all the way. I marked the photo with blue circles for you.

Then use a 1/4 socket or nut driver and take out the three screws that hold the oil pressure gauge tin in the cluster tin.

Once removed, you can finish un threading the 9/16 nut and presto. Reverse procedure to install.

Try not to grab the gauge by the internals or you can get it out of calibration.

Any questions, just ask.
Tom

So that tin pictured will have to be replaced and the vac gauge just fits in place covered by a new tin made to eccept both gauges?

I have to run now but I can explain more to you later.

Take care,
