Hi all, Someone was asking before about silver paint for gauges. In this picture of my dash: http://www.type34.info/temp/Dash%20from%20right.jpg the speedo and fuel gauge were heavily renovated by me, including painting the inner bevel using aluminium acrylic paint of the kind sold for plastic model kits. The clock was pretty much pristine when I got it and is original and unrestored. I can of course provide details of the brand of paint to anyone who is interested. The only thing I don't know is whether Type 3 gauges were the same colour as the ones on the Type 34, so I don't really know how useful this info is. Here is another close-up of my instruments: http://www.type34.info/temp/Driver's%20eye%20view.jpg You can also see at the right a decal with the auto tranny shifter positions; was this used on the Type 3 too? I wasn't aware that the Type 34 had this till recently, and I've never seen another one.
