1963 C10 gauge cluster face replacement

I have a 1963 c10 1 ton. I want to just replace the plastic gauge cluster face and decals. Been all over the internet and do not see this particular gauge face set. Anyone have any ideas for me?

LMC has the decals no plastic lens though.

Thank you for the response 61k10. I did see the replacement decals on LMC that you mentioned, however I do not see the "bulb cluster" model like I have.

They appear to just have the "gauge cluster" ones as seen here...

your best bet would be to find another one and wet sand and buff then repaint the engravings. I might have one that is not cracked.

The gauge cluster set will have the two you need....speedometer and fuel. The black metal cover can easily be repainted. And like the others stated above you'll have to source a used cluster to get a good lens. There was a bare cluster unit on ebay yesterday that had a good lens and no speedometer.
