The 1947 Dodge Build

I have an update to my rant (Post 196 page 8) about a vendor and a clock they’re doing for me. The owner called me yesterday saying they’re having a problem keeping the lens separated from the face and hands of the clock. He unscrewed the outer bezel from the speedometer I sent to match clock numbers and said there’s some kind of ring that keeps the lens apart from the gauge face. Told him I would check on it and get back to him today. So I called Speedhut and explained the problem. Yes, there is a ring about 3/8ths thick that keeps the lens away from the gauge face AND there’s another ring to keep the face (with the electronics on the bottom of the face away from the bottom of the gauge pod bottom. Speedhut inadvertently forgot to include both when putting the package together according to the parts list on their invoice copy!!! Passed this info on the the vendor who said it now all made sense. Speedhut is sending out the 2 missing rings so it looks like I’ll have my clock back soon with the face and numerals matching my other 2 gauges.
Woohoo!
