1935 gauge faces
 

1 Attachment(s)
Guys is there anyone selling new 35 gauge faces for the amp/temp and oil /fuel gauges? I have some nice chrome bezels with good back plates and plenty of the actual gauges, but my face plates I have are faded or heavily marked to the point where I’d rather rebuild this with better face plates if possible.

Thanks Peter. I still haven’t worked out how to enlarge the image like you can. Dan

"Google" "Restore gauge faces" and you should come up with enough to read about for awhile. Both services and DIY stuff.

What are the proper face plates for a 35 vs a 36. I know it’s a color difference, but what exactly? I have several I’d parts with since I only want September 36 parts.
