    I think that the cool thing about building a street rod is, you build what you like. Not what someone else says to do.
    If you know how to rebuild those gauges to make them work? Go for it.

    there are a few places that rebuild the old gauges with new stuff, so they are just as good as the old stuff. They can also rescreen the numbers if you want say the oil preassure to read to 100 LBS rather than what it has now ( probably equivalent or 25-30 lbs ) and make the speedo have a higher MPH.
