Low fuel warning lamp
Hey fellas: I have a low fuel gauge I want to sell, any idea of the year and body type? See picture. I believe (?) it's for a '65 A-body but I need to be sure, thanks

In looking at that I would say 65 or 66. Pontiac A body cars only. Basic red-lamp warning gauges with speed-minder. The fuel gauge with the low level light was always combined into the gauge set with a speed warning speedometer. As far as I can remember that gauge was never available (in the set) as just low fuel warning all by itself.

It must be '65, my '66 GTO gauge has a different face. I'm sure the gauge came with the "Electro-cruise" Pontiac offered, believe you are correct about it being unavailable from the factory w/o the EC. But, I have the gauge w/o the EC so I am going to put it up for sale. I tested it with a correct sending unit, it works as it should. Even w/o the EC, I think it's pretty cool. Thanks for your reply

Yes, I do see the difference. Are those gauges faithful to the originals? In your LeMans? If my gauge is unlike yours, maybe it's not Pontiac? Looked up the #6430375 number on hosts Psrts Lookup page, nothing came up. However, # 6430376 did come back '65-66 33-35-37 series cars. Thanks for the heads-up

Here they are:
Fuel gauge: Complete set: My car was born with Rally gauges. No idea if these are original, but they do match every other set I've ever seen. That's a repro tach - when I got the car, some idiot had replaced the original tach with a cheap auto parts store number. A quick Google search suggests that it looks similar to a '68 GTO gauge...

Mine sure doesn't look like your fuel gauge. A fella has '68 GTO set of gauges for sale, doesn't look like his either. I am at a loss! Hopefully someone else will chime in. Thanks for your pics

Here is my '68 Lemans low fuel gauge. Paired with the speedo warning speedometer which also places the odometer above the speedo needle.
