I've recently been gifted an early set of GT clocks. In reasonable condition except the speedo face is in a poor state. I'm going to see if I can get a copy made local but if that can't work out then what's the best company to get a replacement? The printed circuit is a bit rough too but hopefully that will be repaired

You can get dial faces from Sticky Fingers. http://www.stickyfin...-Dial-Kits.html

And Mini spares sell the clocks PCB's. http://www.minispare...lassic/pcb.aspx

Thanks! Yeah I saw that minispares sold the pcb's but wasn't sure about the faces. I'll check them for prices, cheers!

I may have a spare GT speedo that could be cannibalised for its face.
What mph and tpm is yours?

Yeah I've had a look and they don't seem to do the Smiths ones.

Hi Graeme, it's the 120mph one which I think is 1280 tpm? I don't actually have the face at the moment, It's at a mate who owns a local vinyl sign firm. he seems confident that he can scan the face and reproduce a good copy. Will see how he gets on with it first. I have been chatting on facebook with someone who may be selling me a complete set of clocks for a spare set as well. I'll get back in touch if neither of these work out, cheers!

I could probably also sell you a complete set if required

If you look at smith dials, the numbers of speed, etc are a slightly different type face to the ones of seiki ones, look at the mileage of and old round center speedo, and look at the one of seiki ones..

 

Ive a mini advantage, it had smiths clocks in it, but someone binned them for center one. seiki do clocks that look almost identical, and to look at no one probably would know, but i know and i want the right ones.

Do CAI themselves supply them ?

[skoughi]

CAI? Who might they be? to be honest I'm not too fussy about the correct details, for instance my good friend says he can't do the tpm font as it's too small. As long as the rest is close enough and the colour is good then I'll be happy. The rest of the car is a botch anyway so no point in worrying about the details!

CAI ?

 

The manufacturer's of Smiths Gauges

They do repairs and modifications. Great company to deal with.

Nice website! I've had a quick look but they don't seem to advertise the 1275gt clocks. might be worth a phone call though to see if they do them, cheers!
