I would think if the car had a console it would have a temp gauge in the console. That might be a combo gauge for a car without the console.......

so if the combo. gauge has a dummy light it came with a console, if the combo has a gauge it's a non console car.

i always wondered if my 73' was a console car. it has a stock console but with a home made face plate cut out for aftermarket gauges. and it does have a dummy light combo gauge (correct silver button).

my "duh". it just hit me if you had a temp gauge you would have the "taco plate w/ sending unit" on the bottom of the engine case. look underneath for it.

my question is are you conserned about going back to original? upgrading to oil temp reading gauge is benifitial. if you have no console why not find the combo. gauge w/ oil temp.? of course you may also have to add the taco plate/sending unit

Just to stir things up and add to your dilemma, there are actually 2 combo gauges with oil temp for a 73. The difference is the size of the red warning area. I don't think you'll find any info about which is correct for your VIN unless there is a member here that knows. Both are silver button for "most" 73's:

I think the "large red" gauge is early 73 and "small red" is late 73. 'Course, you could install the gauge and use the empty hole in the console for an oil pressure gauge or a cylinder head temp gauge.

So after reading the link, if your combo gauge has a temp gauge in it, the car didn't come with a console.
Good link, thanks, I now know where my 250K speedo came from, but it might have been put on a Canadian car???????
Dam those metric Canadians. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smoke.gif)
