Thanks Howard. I'll be the genipig. I already purchased an after market fuel sender and matching gauge to install under the dash of my 50 for up coming driving season.

However in the winter of 22-23, if we're all still alive?. My plan was to pull the dash and rewire it. My buddy said I can keep one of the fuel gauges for the 51-53 as long as he has one good one for himself. I will install the 52 gauge in my 50, purchase another sender, for 10-75 Ohms,make an adapter plate to tank, and test it out, bench first! Then install.

From what I read last night, I believe the instrument regulator voltage reduction is the same for 1948-1950 as the 51-54. Unless I find find any other articles saying different.

I'll give it a try, but it won't be for another 9 months.

Thanks again: any other issues you can think of, please let me know.
