Vac. gauge

Thanking of installing a vac. gauge into my dash.I have a 77 F250 CUSTOM,which is very clean. If I have this done with some one who can make a good clean hole for it. Do you think the value would go down.I think it would look ok right above the ash tray.
Just kicking the idea around.

I have one that hangs under my dash just to the left of the steering wheel. My 65 does not have room anywhere in the dash for one to be built in so that is where she will hang for now.
I was thinking on getting an A piller mount of some type and put both my vacuum gauge and my tach.

Put it where you like it, after all you are the driver....

I like having a vacuum gauge it helps me get better mileage.

In my 74 F250, the previous owner put one in right above the headlight switch. It looks okay there. Actually, it almost looks factory.

Thought you guys would like this - shows that this is not the first gas crisis this truck has gone through. It is the 1957 cab I got the other day. You have to admit it is an easy installation, and easy to see - at least in the daylight!
