    I am restoring 275 GTB 6C #08669 and several of the Veglia gauge bezels are dinged. Looks like someone tried to remove them with needle nose vice grips (unsuccessfully). Are the Veglia gauge bezels fo this peroid (1966) and my car interchangeable with (say) Veglia bezels of the same period for Alfa, Fiat, Lancia or are they a unique design for 275 GTBs? I also restored a 1959 A C Bristol a few years back and someone at the A C Club put out a list of all the A C Bristol parts that were interchangeable with other British Car parts of the same peiod. Has someone done that with 275 GTBs?

    I'd try asking a specialist like Palo Alto Speedometer (http://www.paspeedo.com/). They do cosmetic as well as mechanical restoration and might be willing to supply parts.

    Sport Auto in Modena can also restore them.

    Robert,

    The guages on a 275 GTB are the same as those used on a 330 GT 2+2. Call Tom S., he has parted out quite a few 330s so I'm confident that he has several sets of what you need on the shelf.

    Regards,

    Art S.

    I used Palo Alto Speedometer to re-bezel several of my instruments about 10 years ago and was happy with the result. At least at the time, they had a supply of new bezels manufactured, and had a fixture to install them properly.

    I got one from Matt at reoriginals but it took some time, I wasn't able to find it elsewhere after looking 18 months
    Good luck
