Original Gauges

Postby Austinorson » September 8th, 2020, 11:02 pm

Hello,
My 1980 3326 has all original gauges, except one. I do have the original one that was replaced.

Does anyone know how to refurbish old 1980gauges?

I was going to shine up all connections. But can a old tach gauge be restored?

Thx

I believe you can send them in to the manufacturer for refurbishing. Not sure who makes them but probably Faria or Teleflex as those are/were the main gauge suppliers for almost all boats. Find out what brand they are and give them a call. Do expect to pay more than a new gauge though however this is true of most anything discontinued nowadays. :captain2:

There used to be a few outfits around that restored old vintage car gauges, dash clusters etc....google may help here.
The above is strictly my opinion always based on years of doing...remember to support local business , it pays back.
