Value of early blue dials

[Rib]

Firstly this isn't an advert, the dials are still firmly in my car. I'm just trying to guage how much it will cost to swap to a dash2 style dashboard and therefore replacing all my old Blue faced dials.

With them being few and far between and I can't see anyone selling them online does anyone recall seeing a set on ebay or such in the past?

Cheers.

Happy coincidence! Lol

I wouldnt swap them if I were you. They are very rare. Mine has them and as yet you are the only other Chim that I am aware of that has them.

My car is no longer blue though lol

Heres mine. Dash that is.

Yup same as above, close up they have tvr logos too

Ive never seen another, maybe they were on early 430s only. Mine were specified on the original build sheet. It was ordered on 24/02/93 and Date in build was 17/03/93.

If you ever wish to sell them let me know, but I really really wouldn`t if I were you.

[Rib]

is yours a 430 too then? and yes mine was on the original build sheet and also a 93 car. it will be happening at some point soon, as I say, car is no longer blue and interior has been changed so just looks odd.

[wuckfitracing]

Yes mines a 430.

I have a blue car but not sure I'd want blue dials. Appreciate something different though and part of the car's history.
Maybe another blue 430 owner is happy to swap with the OP ?

I wonder if you could spec other colours dependant of your car's colour back in the early production days ?

This in an interesting thread, is it only the blue ones that are classed as rare ? I have Burgundy ones in mine, which i think matches the colour of the leather and the car perfectly

from experience I have seen alot of yellow ones but not many of anything else, cant say I have seen many reds!
