Gauge Service - Crossy? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I think we may have covered this before, but I need to have some factory GM gauges serviced. I have a 1980 tach cluster that has faded / washed off numbers on the tach and the gas gauge has some surface rust. They both also have broken needles. I would like to send them off to make them look and work like new. I love the look of the factory gauges, so even though it might even be cheaper to get better aftermarket ones, I want to fix these.

Does anyone know of a reliable source to service them?

I ran across this the other day and sent this to Crossy. I have not idea what kind of job he does, but it is something you can check on. http://www.tachman.com He states he can
fix 67-up Chevy truck Tachs.

Sweet, thanks, that was just what I was looking for. I'll let you know how it goes. I have four of the 80 tach clusters, I really need one more...
