Well I guess it begins. I bought my first replacement item for my 63. I've started down a path I wont be able to return from! lol

Here is the gauge cluster that's in my truck now, two aftermarket gauges and a missing fuel gauge:

And here is the one I bought on Ebay for 30 bux:

I was told that everything worked, I'll find out for sure this weekend.
