Speedo and Gauge rebuilder?
Hi - Can anyone recommend a good shop for rebuilding/restoring my speedometer and gauge cluster.
I'd like a restoration shop that can correctly calibrate the speedo for my wheel/tyre combo and one that can modify the gauge cluster to have the correct ranges for my engine. Thanks in advance for any help Mack |

Jim Carter rebuilds clusters. You can buy an inline adapter for different gear ratios and tire sizes.

Tom did great work but unfortunately had decided to discontinue operations.

Re: Speedo and Gauge rebuilder?
Thanks for your replies. I'd already sent Classic gauge and cluster an email as I'd seen his work. Hopefully he'll get set up in a new shop at some point in the future as that's some lovely work.
Thanks PaulspickupParts- I'll look into Jim Carter 👍🏻 |

I used Auto Instruments, Martinsville, VA. I had them do a mechanical refurbishment, nothing on the cosmetics. They fixed my '59 cluster up, working good now.
