Hi All.
I´m Andy, and the proud owner :woohoo: of a right hand drive´64 Resto-Mod that i´ve just bought over here in the UK. The owner has just emigrated to Florida.
It is about 98% finished. It has an SRIII chassis, LS2 engine(carburetted) and TKO500 gearbox, Dana differential ..
I´d like to make some changes to the interior, as the original donor car(originally from Ohio) was missing it´s instrument panel and instruments when he bought it.(except for the clock).
It has currently got a stainless steel dash, with Autometer gauges, but i want to return the interior to a more stock-look, and have got my old school buddy (who lives in Illinois), to get me a ´64 dash with instruments via EBay.
Before he ships them to me, i wanted to get the gauges refurbished, and i wondered if any of you can recommend any companies to do this?
A quick look at a few on-line corvette specialists suggests that the auxiliary gauges are cheap enough to buy new , so i assume i´d just need the Speedo , Tach, and clock doing..
Any advice would be appreciated
PS why is there no "tech" forums for the C2? am i in the wrong place?
Regards
Andy
