Body on Frame

Hey All,

I am happy to say that after a long separation my car body and frame are back together. The paint on the body is AWESOME. Now that it is back together it is really starting to look like a car again and I am excited to see all the shiny pieces go on.

For those who would like to look: Check out the website.

See you on the road!

My tach looks great, but doesn't work. Who can fix it? Thanks, Mark

Actually, I can't....

The guy who restored my gauges did so as a favor in return for something I did for him. He has restored other guages for people and he is not really interested in doing any more. It is not his business and he says it doesn't make him any money. Plus, since it is not high on his list of priorities he does not rush to get them done.

I waited a year for him to do mine, but since the price was right (free) I figured I was not in a position to complain. Others who paid him to do it started to pressure him to get them back and his reaction was just to refund their money and say "no thanks".

I promised him I would not "advertise" his gauge restoration expertise which is a shame as he does superlative work.

Good Luck,

Andrew

Hey Alvin,

Thanks for the tips! Did you get your gauges from one of those suppliers? TR

I have everything but the tach working with the SR...I think the easiest way to get the tach working is to fit an electronic one into the housing...

I'll let you know what I find, please share what you find, too! TR
