Need oil pressure and amp gauges

Any idea for a source? Checked eBay.
 
Kirk, which kind do you need, Jaeger, Smith or Lucas? I'm pretty sure I have some, positive Marvin does.
Do you need the whole thing or are your glass and chrome rings good?

Do you want "correct", or just close, or just something that will work? To be "correct", you'll need to know if your car is supposed to have flat glass or curved glass, the change point was roughly mid-year 1962.

Original gauges do show up from time to time on eBay, so keep checking back. But make sure it's really what you want, don't rely on the seller's description. Many of them don't seem to know what they are selling (only that it must be worth a lot of money if they don't know what it is).

1962 They are Jeager. They have curved glass. Oil pressure gauge had the bezel glued on, and the glass broke and the bezel bent when I was trying to take the glass off to clean it. I didn't now it was glued on. The gauge is fine, just need a new bezel and glass. Glass is available, but not the bezel, at least not from Moss. The Amp gauge had some of the lettering wiped off when it was cleaned.
 
Kirk,
The amp gauge would have been Lucas. Lucas supplied all amp gauges for TR series cars until the alternator was fitted. If yours is the curved glass type, it is exactly the same as the TR2-TB3B Amp gauge. Same with the oil gauge (full face, externally illuminated)

Kirk, Sorry to say the only curved set I have is a full TR3 set with tack and speedometer. I just would hate to break up a set. I will look for he AMP Lucas gauge and oil, if you can find the glass, That's the best I can do right now.
