The 1947 Dodge Build

Speedhut offers any of the gauges I mentioned and will build them to match what I now have. If I went this route, I would probably go for the vacuum gauge.

Another option is to add a shift position indicator - probably a digital version. The steering column I will be using doesn’t have any provisions for a shift indicator. Seems like in Virginia it is required for an automatic!
A digital version might be the ticket for you. We have those requirements in Sweden too.
