This topic Darren and I spent lots of time on, Lynn is correct with the fuel gauge as mine is a NOS carrier cluster thanks to Keith and the fuel gauge is complete but with out markings.
Out of Darrins pics the top two are right then you have a modified dash that could have been in a Strickland and a Mosley interpretation.

Instrument cluster is just about done. Before and after photos . More parts coming next week . If some one has a spare correct speedometer sticker that would be great ! I've Google for one , but only find the same as I have .

I bought a set of early style decals off ebay. The seller is based in the usa and has decal sets for 1940's ford instrument panels. Price is fairly reasonable at about $100 with postage. He also supplies new numbers for the odometer barrels too in the set.
Good luck. Matt.
