First, the center section is not original, duh!  One the the DPOs made a new 
center dash section and removed the heather controls (lots of new space right 
there!)

Anyway, here's a list of what I have currently:
Fuel
Temperature
Oil Pressure
Amp
and Vacuum

also
2 lights (hazards and brakes warning light)
and 2 flip switches (one for parking lights and one for headlights)


In the next few months, I would like to make a new wood dash.  I like the fact 
that I have all the usefull info available so the dash I'll make won't look 
like the original.

I already made some plans for the new layout but only 4 gauges will fit (since 
I'll put the heater controls back in).  I could alway put the fifth gauge in 
the rightmost section of the dash but before I do this, I'd like the list 
opinion on keeping or ditching the vacuum gauge?  Is it worth keeping or is it 
worth the trouble of finding a spot for it?

As always, Thanks
Stef
