I have a 59TR3a that will be far from original so that's not an issue, incl=
uding a TR4a engine that's been worked.
We just pulled the small gage cluster to rework it. All the gages are out =
and will be sent to West Valley Instruments to be refurbished/rebuilt.
I have the option of keeping the temperature gage as is (I checked and it w=
ill thread into the rebuilt engine) or having it redone as an electric gage=
.
I kind of like the funny old gage with its funny old piping that goes throu=
gh the engine compartment. On the other hand, electric is simpler and prob=
ably cheaper.
Since the car has an alternator and backup lights off the TR6 OD tranny, wi=
ring isn't an issue.
Just looking for opinions - keep the TR3a style or go electric?
