It had 6 gauges, speedo on left, tach on right. The gas gauge was left-most, oil pressure in the center and on the right the water temp on top and below that the clock.

This is the way my dash (a '74) looked when I bought the car a few years ago. Not saying it's right but it's the way it was laid out.

I've since changed it to a more modern 5 gauge setup and there's a separate oil pressure gauge under the dash that's much more accurate than the Fiat original.
