I have a complete set from a 1965 custom cab if you want that style. That would be the "sweep" speedometer with oil pressure and alternator gauges as well as indicator lights. PM me your email address if you need photos and are interested in this type of gauge set-up.

He has the custom cab gauge/panel and doesn't look like anyone has purchased yet. I have also seen them on eBay and CL.

Parts catalog pic: 1965/66 F100/250 2WD Custom Cabs & Rangers with sweep speedometer. The Oil (9273) & Amp (10850) gauges were optional.

The chromed plastic bezel has been reproduced, a hole saw is required to drill out the holes for the optional gauges (if present).

The speedo and all the gauges are obsolete, some may be available NOS

Notes: The sweep speedo cluster requires a unique instrument cluster wiring harness to connect it to the dash harness.

When the oil pressure gauge is present, a special fitting is required, as both the oil pressure sending unit & the oil sending unit for the warning (idiot) light thread into it.

C5TZ-9B339-B .. Fitting-Oil Sending Units - 1965/67 F100/350 240/300/352 / Obsolete ~ 20 available NOS

E4ZZ-9278-A (replaced B7T-9278-B - C7ZZ-9278-A - C9ZZ-9278-A) .. Oil Pressure Gauge Sending Unit - Myriad 1957/90's FoMoCo vehicles (Motorcraft SW-1547-B) / Available from Ford and auto parts stores.

I picked up my extra gauges at a swap meet, and later found a truck in the junkyard that had the extra wiring harness. Even though the wires were too old to use, they made for a great pattern to make a new harness. The harness isn't as simple as you'd first think; it has to plug in to the original harness with the 'bullet' style connectors, there are extra leads/sockets for illumination and having the right colors also aids installation.

I was able to source the adapter for the dual oil pressure sensors at a local parts store. I did not wire up the AMP gauge as they can be a fire hazard, and I don't particularly find them useful. It's just in there for 'pretty', but the oil gauge is a wonderful addition.
