1936 Auburn Tachometer

Perhaps put something out on the ACD page on AACA Forum too (and also on ACD Club website Forums page).  I am thinking a gauge rebuilder may be able to help or someone would have one for parts (they tend to go 350-ish plus though), but as to just knowing where repair parts are available that is not something I have ever stumbled on in 15 years of Auburn ownership.  

I would think someone could weld the part for you - perhaps a really good jeweler who is more handy than not - only really issue is getting the precision via centering 

John Wolf repairs them, but not sure if he sells parts.

John,

Thank you for your suggestion but the piece is stamped steel, it needs to be balanced which it wouldn't be with added material, the shaft needs to be in the true center,  and the shaft needs to be at an exact 90 degree angle. I have already shown it to two gauge rebuilding shops and they have said I need to find a new part or a new tach.

Ed,

Do you have contact information?

Steve,

I'll see my dad today and find out if he has a tach or parts laying around.

Sorry Steve,  I thought we had a spare tach but it got sold at Hershey.

Thanks for looking.

I got a replacement part from an ACD guy in Canada. It's at the speedometer shop being assembled and calibrated.
