Default Gauges

I have a 1964 resto-mod. The gauges are original, I am thinking about changing them out. Anyone have any info about any issues or type gauges they would recommend? Dolphin, auto- meter? I am interested in something that would be a plug n play if that is available.
Thanks in advance.

I have a 64 resto mod as well. I used a set of auto meter gauges that really fit in well. Here's one of the links to what I did.

You have options. Dakota Digital makes a killer VHX analog/digital system that is unreal. AutoMeter (which is what I have in my 64 Restomod) is great - especially when you install it with the adapter plate offered by Hot Rod Dynamics (Joe Lutz) that allows you to use your existing dash without any mods to allow the AutoMeter to plug right in.
