extra gauge cluster glass?

Hello,

would anyone happen to have a spare gauge cluster glass lens from a 66 Ford laying around that they would like to get rid of on the cheaper side? I am trying to make my dad a clock for Christmas out of the cluster panel from a 66 Ford that regrettably got sent to the crusher. The cluster panel is the only thing left from the truck and I thought it would mean a lot to him to make a clock out of what was left of it. If anyone has an old gauge cluster glass lens laying around, I'd be interested in buying it.

Thank you,

Jon Preston

1966 F100: Two different types of instrument clusters.

Is the speedometer round or the sweep (rectangular) type used on 1965/66 F100/250 Custom Cabs & Rangers?

It's the big round type cluster without the individual gauges located at the 2, 4, 8, and 10 locations.

Go to a glass shop and have them cut one for you. 6" round cost will be under $10.00

I think I have one, but as said, your local glass shop will be just as cheap as shipping.
