Does anyone know any way that I can repair a cut coolant temp gauge sender? it was cut in my truck when I got it. I swapped a 350 into the truck and I would like to run the stock gauges in the truck and need to figure out the coolant gauge. I saw a company sell new but I would like to try and avoid that to keep the same rustic look

They are filled with a gas so not repairable. You can get a new one from the sponsoring vendors. Jim Carter, American Classic and others.

Agree with vern, if it is a mechanical gauge, the line is filled with gas once damaged throw away unfortunately.

Any of the companies that are rebuilding gauges can fix a cap tube. It usually costs more than buying a new gauge.
