I put all the tins in electrolysis and let it do the work of stripping the rust off and the paint as well.. Leaving me with nice clean metal to re-paint. For the weird green I had it color matched at O'Reilly's.. The needles are Duplicolor hugger green to match my engine and calipers.. and whatever else I end up doing green.
Fresh Paint and plastic. The Faceplate came from Manes, circuit and plastic from Classic Parts.. everything else.. came from 1969 ;-)
masked off the round part of the tach needle it didn't come out good enough to pass my standards.. UGGGH!
Had to pull out this rivet to get the tach needle pieces apart for painting.
