I looked at what it would take to rebuild the instrument cluster, but i decided I'd rather have a professional do it. I had them use a black background for a higher contrast. They also replaced the oil gauge with a higher pressure because I replaced the splash lubrication engine with a full pressure engine from 1961. One thing I thought was pretty interesting was that there is a two speed gearbox on the speedometer input. This is because of the two speed rear axle. I also got new sending units for the gauges because of the conversion to 12 volts. I had the speedometer set to zero, but now I'm second guessing that decision. It would have been interesting to have the original mileage on it. Of course, that's assuming the mileage shown was accurate, who knows? As far as I can tell, it looks to have been about 35,000 miles or so. That doesn't seem like very many miles.
