Greetings all--------
In addition to my 500SEC and 560SEC, I also have a W113 280SL which is
presently in the midst of restoration, and some customizing. In the course of the
project, I will need to modify the gauges with some new markings. Basically,
I'll incorporate the left-hand W108/W109 (250SE through 300SEL 6.3)
multi-instrument dial (fuel/oil press./water temp) gauge and install FOUR gauges (oil temp,
oil press, volts, and water temp) (using the "idiot" light area at the bottom
of the dial for the fourth gauge). Some of the needles also will sweep the
opposite direction. Altogether, I'll need to repaint the lines and numbers on
the dials, the legends (water temp, etc.), and replace the non-MB needles with
MB needles.
My question: Is there an excellent source for custom painting of dials on
automotive gauges?
Thanks, all; any leads would be most appreciated.
