1971 Triumph Tr6 Smiths Temp Gauge (oem) on 2040-parts.com
Ruckersville, Virginia, US
Up for sale is a completely and meticulously refurbished Smiths Temp Gauge from my 1971 Triumph TR6. This gauge has been disassembled and rebuild via the following: (1) Shell media blasted to bare metal (2) Internal shell primed and painted in brilliant white (3) External shell painted with POR-15 gray to glass-like finish (4) Gauge face white glove polished with Pledge and dust free cloth (5) Original Glass bezel retained and cleaned (6) New gaskets from Nisonger (7) Swapped original flat black bezel with chrome from Nisonger (retained original and will include with sale) This came out so well I intended to keep it for a future swap. However, due to a change in priorities and limited space, my hope is this beautiful piece of history goes into a working "six"! Please let me know if you have questions.

Studiotorino unveils Porsche Cayman-based Moncenisio
Tue, 25 Mar 2014Studiotorino is an Italian coachbuilder, based in the city that its name suggests -- on the banks of the Po River, deep in the heart of Turin. It came to prominence thanks to a smattering of projects: a buttressed, fastback Mercedes-Benz SL, a Fiat 500 named after beloved Italian pulp hero Diabolik and a Maserati Quattroporte wagon that they appropriately renamed "Cinqueporte." But Studiotorino is also infatuated with the Porsche Cayman. To that end, the firm has introduced the Moncenisio, a Rhapsody in Blue rebody of the Typ 981 that aims to do for German sports cars what Figoni et Falaschi did for the Delahaye and what Porcubimmer Motors did for a BMW 3-Series.
