I'm OG and I like gauges.  I admit some of the recent programmable digital dashes are really neat.

Two comments.

You got the makings of a classical southern novel.

You should have moved when you caught hate in the wind.

No.  They are a copy of the gauges that were installed in the GNX.  I don't know if anyone is still selling these but they used to be a bit over $1k so they are probably more like 2k now...

I think they are really cool but I would probably go with a programmable digital version these days.

Either way I like this dash.

I'm not sure the early cars had that.

My understanding that it was added to reduce foaming in the fluid.
