Guages

Hello, all. I have an all original 62 f100: 352/4spd/9" rear. Does anyone know where I can get the guages rebuilt? It has a single round module that holds everything.

having your's rebuilt might be costly, a lot of these are available on evil bay. Depends what you want to spend. For instants, ebay item # 370052335451
Your money.
Or take an OHM meter to your local pull aparts, and find one that works. Like I said it's all about money.

Uhm, 352 not offered in the trucks until 1965. Did you mean 292?

Anyhoo, these gauges show up all the time on e-bay and often don't sell. What's wrong with your gauge cluster? you may just need a new gauge voltage regulator.

1961/64 F100/350: the 292 2V was the only V8 offered.
-----------------------------------------------------
B9MZ10804C .. ICVR (Instrument Cluster Voltage Regulator)

The ICVR is available from autoparts stores, but make SURE to take the old one with you.

1961/66 F100/350's use one type, 1961/66 F500/1100's use two types.

The parts catalogs used by autoparts stores may not show any difference.

There was only one V-8 option 61-64, the 292 Y-block. It's easy to spot as it's got two centered valve cover nuts and the motor mount is at the front. It also will have the goofy front crossover exhaust pipe if it's original.

65-66 was upgraded to the 352 FE block, a giant cast iron monstrosity with motor mounts on the sides and valve cover bolts around the perimeter.

Anything else in there would have been swapped in.

Ok...so the 292 would have a goofy crossover pipe? I thought the 352 had a crossover. This is my first old Ford truck, I usually mess with Mustangs.
Here is everything off the Data plate in the glove box:

F10CR312277
WB: 122 Color: J Model f100 Trans: F Axle: 11

GVW: 5000 H.P.: 135 @ 3800 D.S.O. : 71

From what I've read in these forums, I think I got screwed when I bought this. But it runs and drives and has a lot of potential, so maybe I didn't.

Thanks, fo rthe input, Robert. I think I will try the salvage first. Only problem there is that most of the yards around me have crushed all the good stuff.

IF and only if the first few didgts and letters of the vin numbers are the same between 63 and 62... you have a 292 y-block

Why do you need the gauges rebuilt? Is it because the paint on the needles has faded?

Women's nail polish (yes, that's what I said), is what restoration shops usually use. New gauges are not that tough to find.
