The top set of KM/H faces look like the work of GS

Europe: km (via Henk)

Hi Greg,

The second set of km/h gauges you have shown must be the ones from Henk. I created the X silhouette for GS's gauge faces and I am pretty sure that is my drawing in the top set of km/h gauges as well as the US set at the bottom.

Here is the traditional Nuccio sketch:

Here is the drawing I sent to GS years ago.

I made some changes as I drew up my take on it. For example: I added the engine cover and I made the windscreen a real narrow inverted V rather than a single line. I also made the targa sail area a little more swept forward. GS tweaked my drawing a bit to close up the gap from the hood to the base of the windscreen. I liked the gap, he apparently didn't.

I can't remember where GS got the gauge faces themselves... I just helped with some of the "art work".

I do remember that drawing you did

of the silhouette & the engine cover does jar the memory now

Looks like your drawing art is in a much better place now. Might have been GS last good deed helping out with the project overseas...

See PM...

... and my 2 cents to this thread is...

I believe Mike Sotor had a hand in his also... Silver made me a set and e-mailed them to me, and I printed them out on regular old photo paper.

Repainted my needles, (in fact, made NEW needles out of tie-wrap plastic) outlined the edges in silver, and glued the faces in place...

Still holding up well after many years...
