This fuel gauge was in the '67 Microbus I just bought and is the original one. The build date on my bus was 9/66 and the date on the back of this gauge is 8/66. It's the only year for the 12v split window bus, so these things are almost impossible to find. It wasn't working...no idea why. The dusty looking face is from some rust that was in the bottom of the face that got shaken up when I removed it...it will be MUCH clearer looking when cleaned. My bus is simply a driver, so originality didn't mean much to me. I replaced it with a common 6V as I didn't want to spend the $275-350 prices I've seen for nice, working 12V ones. Anyway...didn't want to see this guy wind up in a landfill so it can be yours cheap to rebuild...use for parts, etc. Check out my feedback. Almost 650 and 100% positive...nobody disappointed in over a decade. Read the comments and bid with confidence.

New Vauxhall VXR8 GTS gets 576bhp & costs £54,999
Wed, 29 May 2013The new Vauxhall VXR8 GTS gets 576bhp If you’re going to make your most potent saloon car more powerful, you could just tweak the engine management a bit to add a few more horses. But Vauxhall have gone a bit further with the latest VXR8 GTS – it gets a 6.2 litre V8 from the Camaro ZL1, a whole 150bhp and 140lb/ft of torque than the old VXR8. Vauxhall has based the GTS on Holden’s new GEN-F GTS – Australia’s maddest production Holden – and the increase in power comes courtesy of a supercharger, new exhaust system.
