    66 clock

    I'm looking to purchase an American made quartz 66 corvette clock, can someone recommend some venders that sells them?
    Thank you

    In '66 the clock was not quartz. It was made in USA as a mechanical unit. I think the mftg was Borg.

      P.S. Not sure about the "made in USA" part.

        That clock is made in China and distributed by Keen Parts. Great clock. perfect reproduction????? but detectable by any first time judge.
        If you want a USA made clock with a Quartz USA made movement you are out of luck.

                If you have the original and it is a mechanical clock, it may be possible to repair it. If you are interested in a quartz movement and do not wish to repair your original, then as Phil suggests, Instrument Services Inc. offers the quartz movement, and it comes with a CD that takes you step by step through replacement. There is a distinct difference however, between a mechanical and quartz movement if you plan to have the car judged.

                  Hi Morris:

                  I have used "Clocks by Roger" several times over the years --- he did both a Quartz and a Mechanical unit for my '66.



                  Regards
                  Bill

                    I used Joe Ray to restore the clock on this '67 that I am restoring. Great services, turn around.
