Default Odometer number decal

Does anyone know where one can buy the decal numbers for the odometer for the early Ford speedometer 32-36. The speedometer works fine, it is just the numbers are flaking off. Thank you.

I understand that Macs carries them, at least for Stewart-Warner speedometers (the spacing is different for each of the three types, S-W, Delco, and Waltham).

I've looked for them, too. No luck. Mac's has some, but I don't believe they will work on a 34.
Here's what a friend did (& I haven't tried this).... He messed around with his computer to get the correct size, font, spacing. Cut them out, and applied. They look pretty good, to me - I'd never guess, if he didn't tell me what he did. It was good enough that his car got a Dearborn, back the last time (at Dearborn). JMO

If you have an odometer wheel you can send, I might be able to work out the numbering and print it on a strip, then you could attach it to the wheel.

PM or email
