You may have gauges that needs repair and not a restoration. The car may be a survivor, unrestored, etc. We certainly understand and will accommodate the owner in most cases. 1953-1962 gauges mounted in a case can be the exception. Often the case, and inner plates, will have paint that is flaking. If that is the case Corvette Specialties of MD West will media blast the old paint, and repaint these finishes. We do not want unhappy customers with paint flecks in their gauges!
Quick tip! Be extremely careful when removing the nuts that hold the wiring harness terminals in place. Do not allow the studs to rotate!!

WHEN SENDING PARTS, PLEASE BE SURE TO INCLUDE OUR RESTORATION ORDER FORM.
IMPORTANT PACKING & SHIPPING NOTES: When shipping gauges and other items for restoration, please wrap the items securely! We suggest wrapping each item in bubble wrap individually and cushioning the wrapped bundles within the box with more packaging. When shipping open-face gauges, protect the gauge face by taping the gauge face-down to a piece of cardboard and wrap with bubble wrap. Note that some pointer bases may stick up beyond the edge of the face so the cardboard may need to have a small hole to accommodate it. Be sure to fill the package completely with cushioning material, especially the corners, as any movement within the box can cause damage. Do not use packing peanuts as they allow too much movement within the package. Insure your items for a replacement value you feel comfortable with. Please note that even if you insure your items, if the carrier determines the package was not packed properly they may dispute your damage claim.
