wow they are early, what year would they be roughly? 50's?

started early-mid 50's went till at least '68.

the pressure gauge is dated 7 68.
the temp has a different range, anyone know if this was a date thing?.

edit. just realized you have different bezels.

riddle me this: if you wanted to get them to work but did have the original sender(s) how would you go about getting them to work (12volt system) ?

You would get the correct senders

The pair with the rare plain bezels (ridgeless) are the very early types..50's. I don't know which is rarer, the gauges or the Dodge trucks!

Probably right there. You may have to let Rick tear you a new one
