HUD research!

The car I modeled was a 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle SuperSport, and though I couldn't find an accurate picture of the dashboard of that exact car I found a bunch of interesting references to other Super Sport cars from 1965-1970. So I'm thinking of just taking the bits I like from each ones and combining them into one super awesome HUD!

That's the first image I found of a 1965 Impala SuperSport, and I like the shape of it and the trimming. My car has very similar trimming, so I think I'll incorporate that into my design. The circles on the side are also appealing to me.
The second image I found is of a '65 Chevy malibu. There's a clearer view of the speedometer, so the design I'm thinking right now is the circle and then around it is a rectangle with trim, similar to the headlights of my car.
and font reference~


and  quick mockup for the font I think I'm going to use, which is a 150% scaled Impact and the speedometer and where the other thingy is gonna be
