Does anybody make just dash gauges to fit in the original dash holes with out the bezel. The dash is in such good shape I don’t want to cover any of it.
 
not sure exactly what you are asking, the "bezel" of the speedometer and two gauges doesn't "cover any part of the dash/insert?? They do, however fit into the openings and bolt onto the back of the insert!!

Guess what Iam saying I don’t want the insert. Just the original style gauges to fit in the original dash.
 
Thats a 33 dash shown. I've seen one removable dash in a 34 but it was plain steel, not engine turned. What is the question???

By comparison, here is a picture of a 1934 Ford Phaeton with fixed dash inset containing instruments.
This is how the majority of 1934 Ford Dashes are, all one pressing

Classic instrument makes gauges that will fit in a stock original dash.Very pricey.$1440. This pic off their site but I'm sure they will do them not incl the panel or bezel.

That’s how my dash is. Simulated wood grain. It has been painted so well I just want the gauges without the chrome insert plate. Are the reproduction gauges removable from the plate so can be put right in original dash?

Call Classic Instruments. They can answer the question.
 
Some of the early 34 used a painted (wood grained) dash insert much like the 33 engine turned insert. I am not sure it can be deleted since the instruments mount to the rear of it.
Original 34 gauges do not cover the dash paint, they just fill holes.

The dash just has a big hole if you remove the insert the gauges mount on.
