You can try your luck on E-Bay. I have a set with everything working, but you are talking BIG $$$ here.  :grinyes: The 70-71's were different than the 72-74"s.

If yoy have time and patience. Most of the time you can buy pieces here and there and come out cheaper. Cause for the most part, many have to be rebuilt/restored for a show car I got an extra set about 75% together. Need an amp gauge fuel gauge and speedo.  Then I have some extra houseings and stuff. A whole guage set up can run over 1k sometimes for a complete set up. And then I see them go from 500 to 2k depending who needs them right away. Like there is a nos speedo on here forsale for 500 bucks just by itself. Thats just how it is. But individual pieces are easier to come by most of the time....good luck

What's the differences between the 70-71 clusters, and the 72-74 clusters?

The '70 & '71's had the reset knob for the clock and trip odometer protrude from the woodgrain bezel, not the gauge face. Also. I think the 70 - 71's had a 150mph speedo and an 8K tach. The switch bezels on later dashes may also have had some graphics on them. Maybe someone with more knowledge can verify the last two.

You did well.  :thumbsup: They all had 150MPH speedos. The light switch panel in the later years had little pictures for the lights and wipers to go along with the lettering. I guess people couldn't read?  :lol: The later years had a 7 grand tach. The 70-71 gauges cost $$$ when you can find them.

The 1974 models had the small graphic pictures on the switch panel. A small headlight-like picture for headlights & for the wipers there was a small windshiled picture showing a wiper moving on it. I believe some very late 1973 models had this as well.

Also, 1974 was the only year that said 'LIGHTS',  instead of HEADLAMPS for 1970-1973 models.
