1953 Ford electric clock
 

How do you remove the working mechanism from the case?
Is there a clock man you would recommend?
Thanks,
Charles In East Texas

I disassembled the clock in my '41. Just did some careful prying. Mine was crimped together at the edges in a few spots

This clock has an electrical stud at the back. I tried to unscrew
it but would not turn with medium force. It sure appears
that this stud has to come off or out to remove the clock
from the case. Thanks for your reply. Charles

I used Williamson's for the clocks in my 54 Ford and my 56 Bird. I had them do a quartz conversion on both. The 54 was dome about 13 years ago and it's running great. The bird was done about 9 years ago and its running great.

I finally got the 53 clock out of the case. I took both nuts off the back and push on the electrical post and after prying up on the tabs against the case the mechanism came lose
of the case. Charles

Finally sent the clock to Williamson's Instruments in Arkanas. Charles
