Have allready spoken to Trevor Birrell (owner of Bullet) about one of these. If (see when) mine hangs the rods out, we might go down this path, with a Callies or Winberg crank, BME or Pauter Rods etc.

The white gauge faces Aaron, was that a recent acquisition?
I was tracking them down a while ago and both hcca and some other bloke could not be located...
Do you know where to buy them from?
If I can get them I'll want to buy the Autometer gauge too...

Frank, they were with the car (white gauges) when I got it, but I might know where there is a set or two. And i'll look after you on the boost gauge.

i used to have the white face gauges on my old car - personally i prefer the original ones. the white ones glare too much for my liking, both in sunlight and under night lighting. Plus the white needle doesn't help
