Temp & fuel gauges - what am I overlooking?

I was asked a question. I answered knowing I have holes in my memory. So now I feel i should correct my earlier statements even though a rally panel is not the topic here. "Are oil and temp gauges the same?" The simple answer is no but... they can interchange and they did. Through some time late 1967 every gauge was completely different. I have crude sketches of all 3 original configurations. Then somebody figured out that if the beam in the temp gauge was shifted far enough and the needle stops were tweaked far enough, it can report oil pressure. Have a close look at any 68 up rally oil gauge and this is what you'll find. Now we can forget again. LOL

Thanks very much for the clarification RedFish.

After having lots of these apart I had a feeling there was similarities in the oil and temp gauges but didn't know for sure.
