HELPHELPHELP
The numbers have disapered off my glass for my speedo. Ive seen repo. glasses on e-bay but didnt think mine was that bad. Well after sitting in a ziplock for a couple of years while the rest of the car was in rework they have left to the bottom of the bag. Dose any one know who sells them or where I can find one?????? Thanks

Myren, try "RUB-OFF" numbers. any good stationary store should have them. If you have a steady hand you should be able to put the numbers on the glass. Your glass should have an "out-line" of the numbers. Take the glass with you so you can/will get the right size and font. Do one number at a time and dont clean off the old number untill you are ready to put on the new. HTH
Good Luck,JIM

You could try this guy.  I bought some of his stuff for my 1940 Coupe off Ebay and its very nice. He also sells glass for the clock for your year. This advert is from  Hemmings.
