Hi Pat,

Re 'refurbishing the cluster', not sure how far you are going - are you redoing all the gauges and speedo? I know in a previous post, you had talked about your heat gauge being the wrong one for your car and if you are just dealing with that, it can be removed with the oil pressure gauge and the temp-tube fed into the car through the firewall opening. the oil gauge tube is attached with a nut that can be removed, and the 'mini-cluster' can be opened and repaired/serviced with minimal disruption to the rest of the dash. I just did this on my '39 and sent the unit to Roy Martin, 'the Temperature Gauge Repair Guy' and he did a beautiful job of refurbishing the unit. Quick turn around, decent price - highly recommend him. If you are disassembling the entire dash cluster, then my comments are moot, just wanted to save you some time/work if you were going to pull the whole thing to address the sub-cluster. Good luck!
