I need to know what I would expect to pay for a new instrument cluster, with tach and vacuum guage, new lens and new chrome bezel, I might have a chance at getting one, the guy says make me a offer, I want to be fair with him, but at the same time I don't want to get ripped off. the whole cluster is completely redone, please state US$ or canadian$ thanks guys

check comparables. Ebay, LMC catalog, GMC Paul or Tim Christian are good places to consider. If it is as you describe I would expect it to be pricey.

Most of the ones I've seen are $350 plus side.............

Turns out he wants 600 firm and he rebuilt it himself, the printed circuit was patched up not new, and he painted the needs with a brush, don't get me wrong it did look really nice, but its not all new, so 600 seemed a little steep to me, I might take on the challenge of doing one my self, half the fun is finding the parts, and you meet a lot of nice people along the way, finding good parts for theses trucks is like treasure hunting isn't it?

Go over to Early classic enterprises site. Click on the new products page and at the bottom they have complete gauge clusters. The one with tach and vac. runs for 599.00. They are all new and look great. They are a great company to deal with also.

New tach/vac gauge panel assembled complete for 69-72 or 67-68 is now in our catalog if interested, we also have a tach/vac conversion kit. I am upgrading our catalog daily and hope to have a printed catalog soon. All parts are still 100% money back including shipping, no restocking fee or hidden charges.

or you could go custom. I did mine with autometer ultra lite. It didn't cost that much, and I like it better than the stockers (especially that huge 5" fuel guage)
