Have any of you guys taken apart any of these old gauges yourselves to try to clean them up or repair them or do you always take them to a shop?
The "new" old '37 dash I got a couple weeks ago came with the original gauges still in it and they clearly need to be cleaned at the very least... I haven't tested them yet so who knows they MAY need repair too... I wouldn't really expect them to still be working, although I also bought a second set of original gauges off ebay recently as well that also need to be cleaned up but are "supposed to be" in good working condition...
I see 'decal kits' available that will give the gauges a new appearance so that's not the hard part... I would think it would be just opening 'em up and making them look (and work) good again that would be the challenge...
So.... has anyone done this themselves and if so what's the best approach?
Thanks in advance for your help...
