I picked up the adapter ring mentioned previously, and a universal fuel gauge and sender kit that will fit into it. Now I have to figure out where to hide the gauge.
Now back to the history lesson...........
Take a look at putting it in the right cowl panel. When in the driver's seat you can look over and see it. Did this on a couple of my old Fords. Easy to put a hole in the cardboard panel. You may have to run a ground wire for the gauge body.
