I'm looking for a clock to mount in the dash board of my TR6 where the dimmer reostat is located. If I can find a Smiths 2" analog clock I can cut a hole encompassing the reostat hole and the indicator lamp (what ever it indicates) and have a usable accesory there since the reostat is always full on anyway. Does anyone know of a suitable after market clock or another british car that has a suitable clock in it?

Hi,
I've seen quite a few of those sell on eBay and it seems many of them are pretty unreliable. You might take a look at AutoMeter's website. They sell some vintage style gauges that might look appropriate (and be more dependable). Stewart Warner doesn't seem to have any clocks. VDO does, but appears to have fewer styles available than AutoMeter.
Cheers!

I've heard the same comments about Smiths clocks. I'm a big fan of VDO and there are actually several styles available. You can get a general idea of what's out there (VDO and AutoMeter) by visiting www.egauges.com
The VDO clocks show up regularly on eBay. Depending on the market at the time, they sell between $10 and $30. You can also search eBay for Volvo clocks. These are made by VDO. It's hard to tell what price the Volvo clocks will go for. I've picked up a pair for as little as $4/each... but when people want them they go for up to $30.
