[AJD] OT - truck parts needed

[Louis]

Kreig,

VDO has some vintage looking gauges.  I used VDO in my Jeep CJ5 when I
rebuilt it.  They are excellent gauges.

Here is a link to their gauge website.

I am "restoring" a 1930 White fire engine of which about 80% is missing. 
Trying to come close to what I see in original pics along with some artistic

license.

Needing a complete set of gauges for the instrument panel and looking for 
some resources. I don't think anyone would ever have 1930 White gauges so we

would like to find vintage gauges (speedometer, volt meter, oil pressure and

temp.) that might be appropriate for this truck.  I am feeling Googled 
lately, too much information but nothing worthwhile.

Anyone have any suggestions for where we might find a good selection?

Thanks again,  Kreig
