First things first, look for a blown fuse.
5 or 7.5 amp instrument fuse would be the first thing to check.
Not sure about this particular year T-Bird, I know the 1985 T-Bird instrument cluster had a mechanical voltage regulator attached on the back of the cluster. If the voltage regulator fails all the gauges may be pegged to max or minimum.
The CVR won't keep the A/C from working. The instrument fuse will. Upon further investigation I believe it is a 10 amp fuse called "cluster" - at least on a 1987 'Bird. Bottom right fuse ?
