MG TD TF 1500 - Instrument face

Anyone know if there is anyone making TD flat face gauge faces? I looked on NTG and B&G's web but could not find faces.

Rather not use decals if I can avoid it.
Bruce Cunha

Bruce,
My Dutch mate makes them. He does MPH, KPH, early, late, flat, dished and they are metal.

That is great Declan. Really appreciate your fast response. I have a person that will go through the gears and clean it and repair the mechanical. Would love to have a new face to send him

Can you send me information on how to order a TD Tach face in MPH? I came across a speedo face some years back.

Morris at West Valley Instruments in Reseda, CA does rebuilds, and last time I asked (several years ago) he had replacement faces. http://westvalleyinstruments.com/

Bruce, Richfield speedographics did mine a few years back, excellent job.

I received answers back from both Richfield and Declan's friend in Germany. Richfield wants $120 and recommends either buying both tach and speedo face, or sending them the one you are keepind so they can get one close in color.

Declan's friend brought up the same point. His price is 40 euro. ($46.52 us). He is going to check on shipping to the US.

I think I am going to order both speedo and tach from Declan's friend. He also has information on painting the clock face to match the color.
Bruce Cunha

Bruce couldn't you also send the clock face to Declan's mate to have it painted at the same time? Also worth checking out Dave Braun's site. His instrument faces looked really good after he had them restored by a guy in the States. Cheers

I have ordered the Speedo and Tach flat face from Aan, Declan's friend. He is including a clock face and I will ship him mine back. This will assure a good match on color.

Total with shipping was 97 Euro. That is 112.71 dollars. If they look as good as the pictures I have seen, that is a fantastic deal.

I will post some pictures once they arrive.

From the pictures, it looks like he does dish faces also.

Declan, I see a picture of a dash. Doe Aan do dashes also?
Bruce Cunha

Bruce,
Aad (not Aan) only does the dials and the clocks and not the dash as far as I know. Maybe he does-I will ask.
I am in close contact with him regarding the small dial faces and have sent him my graphics. You won't be disappointed-believe me!

Declan

Thanks Declan. Yes, Aad. I just cant type. He sounds like another of those great retired persons that does specific items for our cars as a hobby.

Don't know what we are going to do when the many folks out there that are rebuilding specific parts for MG's are no longer doing it.

I am sending my chronometric gauges to Hugh Pite up in Canada to have him go over them, clean them and fix the odometer and clock.

Bruce Cunha

Got the Speedo, Tach and Clock face from Aad today. They are beautiful. In the picture, the color looks slightly different between the two, but it is just the angle.

These are printed on the steel, not decals.

Thanks Declan for putting me in touch with Aad. Less than 1/2 the price (including shipping) than West Valley wanted.
