Worked a bit on the gauge setup this weekend. Got about 3 hours into this. The bezel is out of a '74, I like the '80 model better, but the '80 bezel was cracked in a few places and the '74 was good, and free. Gauges are 2 5/8" and 5" autometer phantom electric gauges. The 2 5/8" fit perfectly after cutting the cones out of the bezel. The 5" gauges are not a great fit, because the bezel holes are oblong. I ended up cutting more out of the top of the bezel for the 5" gauges and set them in towards the top. There is a little gap on the bottom, but you cannot see it without looking. I'm planning on putting some black felt or some kind of backing there to make it even less noticeable. The '80 bezel would have worked better because the '80 bezel is made a bit different and the gauge holes are flush with the bezel, verses the '74 bezel where the gauge holes are recessed.
