Looking for replacements for the faces on an early set of 1275gt clocks, done a google search but can't seem to find anything. I was sure there was a couple of companies that did them but can't remember who. Anyone know where to get them?

Somerfords did have them, I haven't looked for a while though.

 

I think in the UK there was 2 types as far as the Tacho went, the early ones had the Red Line at 6500 RPM and later they dropped that back to the 6000 mark.

Lockwood is a name that springs to mind but they only appear to do post '88 kits.

Here's a French company i've just found http://www.speedomini.com/en/

Not cheap, & i don't know how good they are but they can customise the stickers.... so given your lineage you could ask for runes instead of numerals

Do you want original look or aftermarket?

Stickyfingers used to do dial kits, I'm sure they could help

Cheers guys. Stickyfingers website is being updated at the moment. Just doing a little bit of market research, I have a good mate who owns a vinyl sign etc business and he's finishing off a set of dials for my early gt (6500rpm rev counter) clocks. We were wondering who else does them

.... & will your dials feature Pictish Ogham runes???

You will have to keep us updated on the quality, & the price (IF he's willing to do more sets).

Pictish??!! Nah nah min, viking ones maybe! My good friend has taken a while to sort these, he's a bit fussy. He said he will be printing a large sheet of them as that's what his machines work to a minimum . We'll have a good look at them and if he's happy with the finished product then I'll post up some pictures and will give his business address .

If they're not printed yet can you design them without the KM/H part -just MPH.

If only you knew someone who needed a set

He's kinda doing it in his spare time, he doesn't have much of that, so it's taking a good while to do and whenever I meet him then I tend to take the piss out of him regarding how long it's taking! We'll see how the standard version comes out then take it from there. I've told him plenty of times about the interest a good set will generate. He has a couple of TR Triumphs so understands!
