Can you imagine how fantastic that would be to have full digital dashboard gauges like a 2019 car and 2 SRS retrofit airbags.... Awesome. That would be worth a lot. That along with modern heat, AC, defrosters, power locks, auto-down/up windows, except for ABS, you'd have a pretty darn modern car.
You could do it under the “anything is possible” law of nature.

I haven’t seen it done. If you’re up for trail blazing and a lot of trial and error it could be a really interesting and hopefully rewarding project for you.

One bit of personal experience to share; anything placed outside the stock gauge location can be difficult/distracting at speed. For example, I put a small, digital voltmeter in the cigarette lighter space in my SC. Glad I did it but I can’t view it while driving very well. For that reason, I would, at minimum, do a mock up and drive around for anything you want to install outside the stock gauge area.

Good luck!
