There is a company that makes the panels for the '68. The gauges themselves will run around $450 (just bought a set of Autometer for my F250). The bezels were around $200. Play around with google and you'll find them.

Go onto mustangdepot.com. They have some gauges/bezels through JME. The whole setup runs close to 900 dollars though. The set up is trick though. If you can afford it, I would go with JME auto lite gauges.

I did mine myself for about $500. The gauges are Autometer Phantoms and the bezel is a repop that cost about $40.

pretty cool, good job. i did not realize it would cost that much, i really like it though. so im not sure what i am going to do, but all this is way down the line. First i am going to get the engine running really reliable, then i work on the interrior then the body. im just looking at my options, so when i get to that bridge, i will know how to cross it with out any surprises. thanks for all your help fellas, its appreciated.
