Hi Jim,
When I bought my '54 Convertible in 2005 it had a non-functioning clock. The prior owner had the car rewired and converted to 12 volt negative ground. I opted to have the clock converted to a quartz movement which at that time cost $111.00. There is no change in the clock's appearance and it keeps perfect time. I put an under-dash switch in the line to the clock so it is not running all the time. Worth considering to avoid the low battery/stuck contact/blown fuse problem.
