  1. Not sure if you still need someone to repair this gauge, but I thought I would recommend a fellow that does this sort of thing VERY well. The name of his business is Abbott Instrument Restoration. He is in the Portland, Ore area, (Tigard, Ore). I visited his shop a year ago I got a full nickel tour. He actually used to work for me 40 years ago, when I had my shop in Tualatin, Ore. He and his son do amazing work on instruments His number is 503-246-1287.

  2. George,

     

    I've never been a fisherman. All I've ever done is drown bait.  I actually committed to buy a very special car yesterday & will post when it is occupying my, (small), stable. Club members have been extremely helpful so far & I look forward to offering help when I can.

     

    Cheers,

    Jim

  3. After having sold the Chrysler Emporium in Portland Ore. 40 years ago, I am once again interested in getting back into the Chrysler Products car collecting hobby. Back then, at 35 years old, I now find I took collecting 14 cars for granted, along with accumulating the second largest inventory of NOS parts in the country. I have been scouring the internet for 1934 to 1936 Plymouths & Dodges, with little success. My favorite was my 34 Plymouth 2-door that launched the business, after the ring gear failed one day. I went through my list of small cashes of NOS & finally found one, after buying the whole pickup load of parts. The rest was history. I am too old to start from scratch with a full restoration, but would like to find a decent original, running sedan or coupe that needs some tinkering. Since I'm intimately familiar with every nut & bolt in those year model cars, the only difficulty will be procuring any parts that may need replacing or are missing. Fell free to PM me with any leads. Many thanks!
