Who Is Reconditioning Stock Guages?

[Bstoker87]

As I'm rebuilding my 1971 Challenger I'm looking into getting the stock guages redone and just wondering who is reccomended.

I also have a 1968 Roadrunner that needs the speedometer fixed, currently says im doing 120 at all times.

I've seen Bob's work over at Bobs Speedometer and his work is excellent. The gist is the minimum cost for any repair is about $500. And once you fiddle with the silk screen and/or the facing of the gauges, expect to pay $1000+ more. They cannot just repaint one gauge, since it won't match the others. So expect to do them all if you go that way.

My own words of wisdom: It can cost considerably more to rebuild your existing set of gauges than it can be to find a nicer set.

I spent about 1,200 with Redline back in the mid 2000’s on my rallye cluster. Although, I changed the black to white, changed the tach from 7k to 8k, upgraded alt guage and clock to quartz movement.
Shannon did everything perfectly and delivered on time. That was a while ago so, I’d expect that job would be higher now.
The work was perfect though.
