    So not exactly cj5,but everything under the tin is early 5. 1957 FC150 with a raised ring on the speedo with curved glass. Speedo work but nothing else was hooked up and the odometer is partly blank. Does anybody restore these or should I clean it up and use it without the fuel and temp guages? The outside ring appears to be brass under the 13 coats of house paint. 20160314_205206.jpg 20160314_205108.jpg

    Looks like Willys Aero car. Hopefully someone will chime in on the name of the company that restores gauges. It's been talked about a couple times over the years but I don't remember the name of the company.

    When I needed a speedo reconditioned I checked the specialist ads in Hemmings Motor News.
