Thanks Guys!

The steering wheel is a Mustang II steering wheel. It bolts right up and fits the column great. The lock works and everything.

I dissasembled the center section, and replaced the horse with a 1971 Grabber door panel emblem.

No, it's a Fuel level gauge. Since I got rid of the OEM one with the tach, I had to have one somewhere

Hmm.. It's been too long! I have had these gauges for over 2 years now. They are 3-3/8" Autometer sport Comp in-dash gauges though.

Wow, I don't remember paying that much!

The speedo is mechanical, it uses a different cable setup than the Maverick (GM-style screw-on) but with a little research, a '65 Mustang cable worked great (I imagine just order it for whatever tranny your car has in a '65 stang)
