Winter is here and I have finally gotten to some Airguide work that has been on the back burner for a while. I have several gauges (mostly pairs) that I have gone through and are ready to install. All have received full functional restoration (bench tested) and moderate cosmetic restoration. That is to say that the cost prohibitive parts to restore (namely the chrome housing) are not factory fresh- but I have done my best to make them presentable. I have additional parts to assemble or repair a few more. I am always looking for good cores. Pricing on the ones shown below will be in the $90-150 range. Email: TRBenj@gmail.com

Hey Tim, I should have sent you the speedos with the other stuff. I have two cores if you want them. Pretty bad shape, but you are the guy to use them. Tom

That's pretty man jewelry.
Are the internals the same through the years?

Yes and no... Some parts/design elements stayed common throughout the years but others changed significantly, as did the construction geometry. I have found it helps to have a lot of spare parts when restoring/rebuilding these.

Too, bad. I was hoping Tim had special skills for restoring press fit gauges.

Do the white KPH still sync in the back or were they converted to thru-lens syncs ?

Bump for the new year... Need to make room for more projects on my dining room table so these will start to be listed on eBay in the coming weeks. Please inquire if you need anything! Trbenj@gmail.com
Al, not sure how I missed your question- the 2 white faced gauges shown have front adjustment knobs (allen key). I may have the ability to make a few of the original rear adjustment style, but parts for those are running a little low.

Hey there, I'm interested in 2 of the speedos on the far right column. I'm sending you an email.

I sent two emails with no response. Guess my money isn't green enough or he's still pissed I made a mistake. 🤑

I am down to 2 pairs of the black face (chrome housing) 725's, and a single cc face (plastic body) 2025. I have a few more I could assemble in a few different ways but we are quickly approaching the end of my speedometer season (i.e., winter). Please inquire if you need any of these, the remainder will be cycled to eBay in the coming weeks. Better deals for CCFans though!

Just one correct craft face plastic 2025 left. The rest of my assembled Airguides have been sold... still plenty of parts/cores remaining so please inquire with any needs. I will most likely assemble a few more come winter!
