I'd caution folks against some restorers (to remain nameless) I bought a restored 63 cluster which had to have the gauges re-restored - the price was so good I didn't get hurt. Corvette Specialties, Bill Harrison or Joe Ray are my choices for a quality job on original cluster.
Classic Instruments did my gauges and clock. I designed my own using a hybrid of the Velocity Black & Auto Cross gauges. I had to pay extra to remove their name. Roger Scott did the cluster and glove box door.

Was Velocity Black the name of the gauge design?
Yes, if you go on their web site and look under their "Performance Gauges" you will see them. I borrowed some of the Velocity Black and their Autocross gauges to come up with my own design. Here is another picture for you.
I just received my 1957 gauges, restored to original appearance, but all electronic and quartz conversion on the clock from John at Redline. Great guy, great service. They look great. I'll post pics in a couple days when I get to them. Mineare for an LS engine setup. He knows all the needs whether going original or Restomod. He has all of the repro date stampings as well. Highly recommend at least talking with him before deciding on a gauge restorer.

Do you need a special tool to replace the steering wheel? I noticed you have a picture with the horn button on and off.
