I have an original pod with gauges, but I tore up he dash getting it out.
Any tricks out there on how to replace the pod?

The original cluster had a huge gas gauge, no tach and idiot lights; pretty sad for an SS model! I found a cluster out of a wreck with tach, oil pressure, small gas gauge and a tach. It also had a clock. The tach replaced the huge gas gauge and the gas gauge moved off to the corner. I had to buy new senders for water temp and oil pressure. The senders replaced the switches. Worked fine. Interesting video for you: www.youtube.com/watch?v=CkRAGtNdPCs

I've seen many with the idiot lights but if you search they are out there. many of the c60's had the upgrades panel and it swaps out. Our '66 grain truck did, though it didnt have the tach, just a blank in that spot. Original always looks better than aftermarket hodge podge if available.

Old maná Old trucká neither one goes very fast. All you need in life is TIME, PATIENCE and MONEY.
If you are missing one component, you'll need an abundance of the others two.
