Hello Friends,
Today was a grandbaby hugging day so not a lot of car work got done.
This evening I did clean the combo gauge and while its LOTS better, it
still has a lot of 'patina' on the face. Here's how it looked when I
started. (The website is REALLY slow this evening so if you can't get
to the pictures, please try a little later. The ghost's in the
machine!)

Here it is, as it looks after tonight's work.

I'll paint the gauge hands before final reassembly and put a new wrap
of green cellophane around the light opening. These little buggers
are really expensive so I don't want to mess with it too much and risk
damage. I think it will be just fine as is, if showing a little
character. If I change my mind later, there are reputable shops who
can restore the instrument.
