Is there an easy way to reproduce this?

[29hupp]

This is the temperature gauge  on my 29 Hupp.  Picture was taken a while back and it is now almost unreadable.  The tube to the sensor bulb is separated which I am going to try and repair with an old but working gauge.   If it works I would like to have the graphics restored if possible.   Is there an easy way to reproduce the graphics.

Ray Wolf probably has the artwork for all the gauges.......he restores.......doesn't sell. But its worth it. Look him up on google.

A good local graphics/print shop can make them as stickers from the originals.

You could carefully take the gauge apart, scan it, restore it in Photoshop or Paint, and print out a sticker to paste on the original metal piece. Or, as others said, let an expert restore it. I think I would do the latter.

A company called Classic Instruments can do just about anything you need for your gauges. I believe they are located in Michigan.

You might want to bite the bullet and have all the gauges rebuilt. One good one will make the rest of them look scruffy.

Bob's Speedometer shop is just north of Ann Arbor in Howell, 1/2 mile off of US-23. They do great work fast! I still owe him a pint of Jack Daniels for some quick and easy (for him!) tachometer repairs he did when I dropped by unannounced one day last summer.
