The temperature gauge was the 1st thing to start messing up, it has been registering past 260. When I 1st get in the car it's usually sitting right in the middle. Then the speed odometer and gas gauge both stopped working 2 days ago and now the tack is registering between 6 and 7 RPM's. But get in the car today all work except the tack. What would be the problem?
It's tach, not tack, short for tachometer. Were these gauges installed by unionized people? It could have been the gauges' day off, as per their collective agreement.
Most instrument panel woes are caused by bad grounds. Most panels are below the front glass, and if this leaks, guess where the water goes? Dashboard problems are a bear to fix sometimes, and costly in terms of labor. Have someone steal the car.

It sounds like the wire harness in the back of the instument cluster has gone lose. Check the wire harness. Good luck

I had all my analog instrument panel gauges stop working after they did the state emissions test. I found the proper fuse in the fuse block located under the hood. Simply unplugged the fuse, noticed it was still good, and plugged the same fuse (10A) back in and all the gauges started working again. Guess it needed a reset atfer they plugged in for the emissions.

Go to the fuse box and change the fuse for "Gauges". I think this might solve the problem.

If
all voltages checked ok, then most probably its faulty instrument cluster board
on which gauges are connected. Yes if cluster circuit board looks ok, then also
it can be faulty. Somewhere there is minute short or burn on board then such
problem arises.
Also
check the fuse box. One under hood and other under dash.
Inspect
each and every fuse and see if all are fine or not.
