qvpower Report post Posted March 31, 2009 On the gauges, I noticed that the center holder for the needle shape is different.. Did you guys replace out the needle assembly? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Ierardi Report post Posted April 1, 2009 On the gauges, I noticed that the center holder for the needle shape is different.. Did you guys replace out the needle assembly? Yes. The needles are metal now so it will never happen again. We have restored the plastic ones before but they just bend again. You can not see the difference when in the cluster, only under macro photography or holding it up to your eye. Tony Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Ierardi Report post Posted April 3, 2009 The first of my spot on exact recreated parts that have been long unavailable will be here next week. Photos as soon as they hit my desk. Lets just say that Ralph will be very happy These parts are for LP400 or LP400S interior. The next two after that are in production phase. One of which is for 74 - 88 Countach.

I suppose the original Cannonball car had a brown dash ? I think I purchased from Chad, the 400S locked glove box door, that is correct for the model year. I have that part. The engine and transmission, will soon be yanked out of the car. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
