Re-pop Moto-Meters have a brass course threaded shaft while the originals have steel fine threaded shafts. The inner surface of the meter body between the front face plate and rear glass lens. Is painted a satin black on the originals and left blank (chrome showing) on the re-pops. Snyder's is now selling a beautiful re-pop of the Ford script Moto-Meter face plate. It is almost impossible to tell the difference from an original. Embossed
re-pop Moto-Meter face plate screws are also being sold now. But, they do not have as much detail as the originals.
