Hey Don, welcome to the tribe.   You didn't buy it from a guy in  
Conifer did you?....Anyway, like Jason said check the tranny fluid.   
Tranny tube is near drivers distributor, and if you're lucky there's  
a dipstick instead of a red cap(or nothing).  Without the dipstick,  
you can drain the pan and refill with 4 quarts of Dex III.   
Instrument clusters have known weak solder joints.  I'd run it for a  
long while before driving it to verify that something's not gonna  
leak out on you in 30 miles....Tom
