Re: 1940 dash replace

So I have been working on the dash. painted the dash on the weekend (will post pics soon). I thought while I was waiting for the clear on the dash to dry I would work on the glove box door/clock assembly. I really wanted the clock to work so I don't have to look at my phone going down the road to see what time it is. Plus I hate having things that do not function. So I disassembled the original clock/door took the guts out of the clock and got a newer clock from my brother that I disassembled to put the newer parts in the old clock housing. As a side note to this when I took the 2 clocks apart they were both manufactured at a factory in Delavan WI, my grandmother worked at that factory for about 30 years I believe. So I know she was there when one of these clocks were made if not both. I don't know when she started at the factory and sadly I cant ask her. I hade forgotten that was where she had retired from until my brother reminded me. So this is the first part of the clock upgrade
