If the original dash had gauges, it had oil pressure, engine temp, an amp gauge, and maybe a clock installed in the four smaller bezel holes. These three would have been the gauges replaced with warning lights if that's what happened. But usually it's the other way around- that is to say- these warning lights are replaced with gauges.

FYI- amps were only 73-75, 76-87(91) were volts.  Some truck came with clocks instead of the brake light as an option.

You are talking about the RPO sheet in the glovebox it gone?

You can crossreference the color at http://www.autocolorlibrary.com IF the color is the original to the truck.

pull the dash cover to find the original color ...in most cases you only have to look at your interior color(metal parts) to verify original color....very few of our trucks have had a full interior color change and the interior color will be the same as the primary exterior color was originally
