Just my ignorance I guess. It's beautiful. Just didn't expect their's to run $700. Don't know what an equal NOS would be. Usually NOS is twice or more, $1400 for NOS?

Why wouldn't the fuel gauge say empty and full. Does the needle normally fall that far to the left when it's not hooked up?

Re: "Show Quality Gauge Cluster from LMC Truck"?

Is the tach needle supposed to look different?

Very nice cluster. The color of the needles vary with the light in the picture.

Any sentence containing the words "show quality" and "LMC Trucks" possesses all of the essential elements of an oxymoron.

I saw that $700 with show and thought what, LMC has a premium line? This is a nice piece though, no doubt.
