I would buy some nice Stewart Warner or Auto Meter gauges and mount in a gauge pod over to the right where they are easier to see. Or on the A pillar like some do.

Just my thoughts. Unless you build your own custom set up, it is a task to move stock gauges around.
Thank you very much. This is an all original truck. And I mean ALL original! (Just turned 100k miles). So, I think the pod makes the most sense w/o having to cut/mod anything. I'm trying to figure a way to make the gauges fold up under the dash for shows, etc.. I had the guys at Goodyear tell me the age of the tires a couple months ago. I didn't say anything. According to them the tires were from 1971!!! (Oh, this is a '71 Super). I changed them out!
