Dick I have purchased quite a few,They can be beautiful Instruments..Cosmetically. But..They can be costly to repair.I have seen repairs up to $1500.00 .
Tachs can be bad.Clocks usually need a Quartz Rebuild.Amp Meters .
They are a decent investment.But be prepared .
Call me anytime.

I've seen originals go for 500-1000, and restored going for more. I may send Mr. Roth a dash, a ralley pack, and a safety sentinel and ask him to bang them together and make it work.

Koda ..The only problem is that The Rally Pack and the Safety Sentinel use 2 different Circuit Boards.They don't integrate well.The Rally Pack has a Mylar Circuit Board where the Safety Sentinel uses a hard Bakelite material with Copper .
There is a Spade terminal on the Safety Sentinel Board that triggers the buzzer.
As far as the value of the Rally Pack .Id say you are very close.I have paid $650.00 each for the 4 that I have.They are very clean Instruments..Another $1000.00 to get them whole.Id love to do an IP Restoration for you.I have 22 in house right now. Let me know if I can help.Ron 586-586-1234 Detroit Michigan..Dont be afraid.

Ron does beautiful work, at a very reasonable price. There's no one else I would trust to restore my dash. Do a search on here to find some examples of his work. You will be amazed.

Never noticed that circuit board difference. My 442, the rally pack, and the safety sentinel are in three different locations. Once I get going on the resto, I will send you business. I may have to fabricate a custom circuit board for them both. So much for option U-22, hah.

Ron, I have no doubt you are quite right, I just didn't notice the difference. It may take some custom wiring to get everything up, but it can be done, I think.

Randy, a safety sentinel, sometimes called speed minder, has another needle that is user adjustable and it buzzes if you exceed. Here is an overpriced one on Ebay for the year, 67, in discussion.
