Between yesterday and today, some more parts came in. The one item that really suffers in roadsters is the interior, including the gauges. The temp gauge and tachometer colors really fade back. I sourced an NOS temp gauge, a restored tachometer, and got the clock back from Clock Works. Once I have the cluster apart, I can determine if I need to paint the needles. I'll also see how the gauge cluster carrier cleans up and determine if it needs to be painted. Not as easy as the survivor cars

Tim,
Having owned a couple roadsters in the late 70’s in Springfield Illinois I noticed that those hot summers definitely took a toll on the interiors.
But having the top down cruising with your girlfriend was a must.
I’m sure this Red ‘67 roadster interior will look close to new after the Tim Touch.
