oil temp guage wanted for L-2

[N47322]

Hi all, I have a 1943 L-2 with a 65hp Continental and am in need of an oil temp guage. I want to keep my old girl stock which it has stayed in all these years so an NOS or rebuilt original would be great but I need one no matter what so an aftermarket replacement would work also.

Thanks for reading!

I have plenty of 3n1 guages. The issue is finding anyone who will touch one because of the radium paint

Hi again, I forgot to add that I have an L-2A model with out the 3 in 1 guage. My old girl has the single oil temp on the far left of the instrument panel.

Thanks again!!

I probably should have asked this question, too. I could also use a time period correct oil temp gauge for my L-2B, if anyone has another one around. Thanks.

What is the model of the guage and range markings? Too lazy to dig thru all the drawings.

Mike,

Let me look through the blueprint CD's to confirm.

Mike,

Looking through the blueprint CD it appears to be a U.S. Gauge. Range markings appear to be 60 (?) to 220. Black face, white numerals and hand. Something similar would also be ok. Do you have a CCW tach? Maybe an AC without a meter?
