  1. If you are looking for real aircraft gages from classic B747 I would think they would be quite hard to find - since there are so few of them left flying.  They are also very expensive (at least in airworthy condition).  Even when one of the remaining aircraft gets scrapped, all removable parts are taken out and used as spares on other aircraft.  A lot of those parts, including many instruments, have been out of production for many years, so the remaining usable parts are repaired and reused as long as possible, and are very expensive.

    The few companies that still fly the classics have switched or are trying to switch to CRT/LCD displays to replace the ADI, HSI, and all engine gages - because finding parts and overhauling them is so costly.

  2. Aircraft brokers, And there are usually some 747's on trade-a-plane every issue. There is also controller.com, aero trader etc.

    These are available.
