    I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

      Received a package from South Africa this past Saturday. I guess the maker of this tee shirt has quite the sense of humor!

      funny Stan, very funny! I laughed my butt off when I opened the package.

      how did you ever think to come up with something like this?

                There isn't one... Sorry, been busy getting things situated outside so we're ready for winter. cutting down dead trees, making another cabinet for the basement as I type and getting things in place for my sons up coming wedding. I still need to get my '82 up to my Sons place before the snow flies, move the Shelby, get started welding up the fuel tank so I can remove the dents and reline the inside of it.

                I did get the 300M all fixed up. a $31.50 used TCM fixed it right up.

                    Sorry it's been a bit, but with a wee bit of a nudge from a certain forum member, I started getting the gauges sorted out last night and resetting the speedo's mileage to match what originally came on the bike. as you can see I have several pieces to choose from thanks to Greg Wasserott and Steve E. oh, and that's not all the gauges I have, one set appears to be missing. it must be in one of the boxes out in the garage

                    at the moment I have two tach's apart so I can change the original gauges face to something a bit more respectable than was on it. sometime later on this week I'll strip the gauge cluster bracket and repaint it, then I can start to reassemble them.

                      I've used S-100 Engine Brightener on the gauge faces when I cleaned up mine. Made them look brand new.

                        Thanks mike! I might try that on one of the gauges I have left over.

                        one of the reasons I took them apart was so I could use the best of the faces I had available. I have two that are in excellent shape already.

                            It gives them that "slightly moist" look that's so dish in fresh, high-quality plastics.

                                Neat. So how does one go about taking these gauges apart, curious because I have a screw bouncing around in my tachometer?
