Rex, The white-faced on the right works very well, in fact, I didn't even have to adjust the syncro.

Al, did you ever try and get those white faced bezels with the 50mph graduations on the outside reproduced?

Stickers? No, with the two black rivets, it just would not look right. It would leave a bump or a bubble.

I was thinking more along the lines of a silkscreened metal face like Dean has been reproducing. Or a vinyl overlay that would go over a different style face (no rivets). I take it you never looked into it?

Vinyl? Are you doing a bathroom floor?

Tim, Yes, I've spent hours consulting a graphic artist.
Just never pulled the trigger, so to speak. AND, Gee thanks Dean! Now I notice that your KPH faces are now on 1/2 price sale! |

And, If I had some really big checkers, I could actually play checkers on my bathroom floor.

Cool! I may be interested in a few if you ever get some made up. Dean, I think Al is referring to your current pricing ($40) versus the old pricing... if I recall, they used to be $75? |

Okay... now I get it.
Don't you guys ever forget anything?? Yes, the price did go down almost half when I started having the dials made commercially (in the USA). Now I don't spend two days fighting the screens and ink. Made from the same high quality materials I used. Al, I don't remember exactly what we did but remind me if you need something else and we will see what we can do... |

HatterBee,
Too bad I found this post after the gauges were sold. I want a nice set of those Teleflex gauges for my 83 BFN (BBBB1), but I'm not sure of the name of that particular gauge series. Any idea? I know CC used them until they switched over to VDO Industrial in '85. |

Not sure what the series name is, TimB might be able to help here.
