Default Picture of 38 pickup guages

Would anyone have pictures of the correct 38 pickup guages? Not sure the ones in mine are correct and would like to verify. Thank you.

Its my understanding that the 1938 pickup used the same gauges as the std 1937. This is also what was in my original '38 pickup. The '39 gauges are brown and very different. Here is a photo of two (very dirty) '37 gauges that I pulled off the internet.

That’s what mine look like, so I must have the correct ones. The next question is what does one use for the red fluid that was in the temperature gauge, they no longer sell the orignal stuff, correct? I am also looking for a gas gauge if anyone has one. Thanks all for the pictures.

The red fluid you mentioned is for the 32-35 gas gauges and yes still available at Renners Corner in MI.The temp gauge needs to be rebuilt by a qualified gauge restorer.You can't do it.The last quote I received was $250. There are gauge clusters all the time listed on EBAY also and recently one with a working temp unit.
