Something odd there, 70's font on the speedometer and 80's font on the tach.

I havent seen anywhere to buy them , but pick up a non tach one for $10-15 at any junk yard and gut it.

I bought a tach cluster off ebay last night after I read this thread. Is there anywhere that I can get new faces for the factory gauges, like white-faced ones or with a different font?
