Old skool boost gauge?Robinxr4i

With the advent of my Sierra getting turbocharged, I want a boost gauge to allow acurate setup (and its always a bit of fun too) I only really need it to read up to 1bar/14psi. And it needs to be mechanical, none of this electronic stuff!
If I cant find anything fancy i'm probably going to go with an Autogauge one as its cheap and did very well in a recent redline/fast ford test.
I want something a bit unusual tbh and I was Just wondering if anyone had any suggestions or recommendations?

Sierra - here we go again! He has an illness, it's not his fault.

 it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts  |

try looking for volvo vdo gauges, they will suit the era but are pretty vague (no markings) just bear in mind that "max" is around 1 bar
