Rare cluster?

I was poking through the Self-Service yard (Favorite pass-time activity) and found a gauge cluster i have never seen before, it Had a 85mph/??Kmph double needle speedo, and 3-4 little gauges in the middle with (for lack of a better term) Digital needles. On the other side was a fuel gauge, it was also a double needle gauge with gallons and litres. Is this worth getting? Is it rare?

Re: Rare cluster?

Re: Rare cluster?

It's not rare, every 82-84 car base model Camaro without gauges had it.

Re: Rare cluster?

It sounds like you're describing what my 84 Camaro SC had. Sort of like teeter-totter gauges. The speedo had one side in mph and the other in km/h. As the mph side went up, the km/h side went down, etc.

I didn't think they were cool though, just really base-model-ish feeling.

Those aren't gauges in the middle, they're idiot lights.
