check electrical wires maybe some of them are unplugged. for gauges, I suggest you get AutoMeter, it's cheap, accurate and durable.

check all fuses

thanks for the replies i have been thru all fuses there is only 2 plug on the back and they clean and tight gas gauge and oil pressure still all i got.is it nessasary for all bulbs to be in for guages to work

does the dome light work?
does any lights work on the power windows or dash?

is it just the speedo only

maybe you blew out the speedo? does the gauges still move?

Check your grounds. Here's a wiring diagram.
