The gauges for my 1936 Fordor are fried, can't read from age. ANyone know of a company that makes replacements that are similar to the originals?

I don't know of a company that makes replacement gauges for 36, but I have several or more stashed away and will look for them and let you know what I have. There are differences between standard and deluxe. What is your car? terry

Also red line or brown line gauges depending on whether the dash is painted or wood grained.

There are 3 different speedometers.Delco,SW and Waltham .I don' think the faces interchange if that also needs replacing. The dual gauge faces on either side of the speedo will interchange if that is what you have.2 different colors in 36.

I do have the dual gauges but will post pictures of them for clarification. Thanks for the help

I have a NOS temp gauge w / original box and calibrated by Abbott Instrument if needed.

This is the type of gauge I have currently and are looking to replace with similar ones.

Can you post a close up picture of what you currently have? As said, there are two colors, which look very similar. One is more on the gray side while the other is more on the brown side. The gauges and speedometer should all be the same color.

I can help you with the temp part of the temp / amp gauge, but others will have to supply the gauge face and amp piece
