Who makes the best gauge refacing kit for a '53 GMC? I ordered one from LMC but they are black with numbers that have a slight green/yellow tint to them. Nothing like the original dark greenish brown color.

I'm sure there are others but I've had really good luck with JimCarter. I have some from another place (no vendor bashing here) that are of poor quality.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile
