That's a nice looking faceplate for the 69 Firebird stacked gauges. I have a set of 69 stacked gauges that were sitting in the car while it rusted through, so there's rust damage. Can you fix the Oil/Temp/Gas faces? If so, what would it cost (an estimate) to refurbish a set of 69 stacked gauges? I'd need the newer tech PCB and I assume the gauges work, but they look like hell.

It would be $200 to blast then restore the housings and face plates Plus repairs. I would have to test the gauges, tach, speedo and rear circuit board to see what they would need.

Thanks for the info, and I hope to have the gauge cluster to you soon.

For the other forum members, I read this article in Hot Rod Magazine online and they allude to the new tach needle and driver assembly used in this article to repair and update the 65-67 GTO Rally tach. The problem is that I haven't been able to find a supplier or retailer to buy it from.
Any help is welcome to find this assembly!
From the article:
"The new product I mentioned earlier is an individual tach-ometer movement, and it’s made by the same manufacturer of the complete reproduction Pontiac rally gauges (and most of the reproduction hood and in-dash tachometers on the market today). It is available retail from many of the Pontiac parts suppliers who support this magazine.
This replacement tach resto part features a solid-state meter movement and plastic mounting board that fits directly into the original metal cluster housing. It allows you to remove the defunct tach, but reuse your original tach face so it matches the speedometer face and other metal instrument faces. This is important as all these gauge faces have aged and faded together. A bright new face would stand out in the crowd. It features an exact duplicate of the original tach needle, so when it’s assembled, it looks 100-percent original.
The new tach movement has three connections on the back. One (the red wire) goes to a key-on spade in the fuse box and the second connects to the coil, just like the original. A white ground wire is used from the back of the tach to the metal housing."
Here's a couple of pix of it:
