I have been eyeing off the rally clocks but saving for my turbo L28 first

[gav240z]

Yeah I have also, would look good in the early girl . Shame they didn't all get them standard.

Ron can fix anything!

 

Check out the before and after photos of this rusty Oscillator I picked up on the cheap!

 

 

After photos.

 

I bought this expecting it not to work, in fact we were going to sacrifice the tuning fork to determine what material it was composed of, but as usual Ron found a way to get it working again and back from the dead, so we're restoring it. I had 1 Rally Clock that was missing it's original Oscillator (I had an after market 1 ready for it) but figured I'd make it complete and original again.

 

As always happens you don't find rare stuff in isolation, but I found another rusty Oscillator not long after this 1. Which will also need restoring...

Wow, that's impressive. Looks more like a soldered circuit board now.

Very impressive indeed.

 

Nice to see some true trade skills are still around in these days of cheap mass produced (and disposable) goods.

 

Cheers
