Hey all,

I am in need of some parts for a 1941 1941 or even a 1946,7 or 8 Plymouth dash clock.

I need the glass lens.

Does any one know who can or does make a replacement? Glass or plastic with the numbers on it.

You might try a vendor who rebuilds these clocks. They sometimes have extra parts left from previous projects. Such a vendor is RS Guage Works in Phoenix AZ. http://www.rsgaugeworks.com/ There are several who do this work. This one comes to mind right off.

Are the numbers actually on the glass for the '42??

They are on the face for the 46-48.

I had a local auto glass shop make me a replacement lense for my

clock. Their biggest challenge was drilling the hole for the stem.

One shop actually could not make the hole, but another did.

Wow am I glad you mentioned that about the numbers on the glass.

The numbers are on the glass for the '41. The '42 can be the same as the '41 as far as on the glass. There are 2 different sizes as far as the complete clock for the '42......later ones were the same size as the '46-8......Earlier ones the same size as the '41.

I have the earlier size in the '42.

I have a '41, '42 and '48 apart on teh bench and got some parts mixed up and thought I did not have a glass with numbers on it for the '41....guess what it was mixed up with the 48 parts.

YEAHHHHH I found it!

Thanks I did contact Scott Young and he has the part I need.

I also found the part I need in the box with some '48 Plymouth clock parts that I got mixed up somehow.

I may send to '42 clock out to get restored.

Thanks again.
