I've taken on a project for Mark where I'm repairing a tachometer and upgrading it to a hologram heads up display for his 2 cylinder motorcycle. Well, perhaps not heads up display on this one, but maybe on the next tach he sends me!
During the repairs, I cracked the chrome bezel ring. I think the Veglia rev counter company didn't do a proper annealing process when making these rings, as they are very easy to crack. To my amazement, there are suppliers online that will sell you replacement bezels. After ordering this replacement bezel, I got to talking with the person selling these and asked if he's willing to sell bezel rings for our 914 gauges. He seems very interested, I'm sure he can sell them as original black or chrome plated. The bigger question would be, is there any interest in this? If it was sold in kit form, with new glass lenses? |
