    APT in Minneapolis area has done them for me before. But it will take MONTHS. They understand old SW's, and won't ruin it with modern internals.

    I used Bobs Speedometer and was happy.

    I've used APT several times for gauge restoration, they do a great job.

    APT times 3! They take care of your chit. And they do it the way YOU want it.
