Looking for 1936 coupe fuel gauge.
I have a dead fuel gauge for my '36 coupe. It has red painted lines on the background, but my other gauges have brown painted lines, so I'd like to find a functioning gauge with brown painted lines if possible.
No luck via allfordparts.com in Campbell, CA. No luck via southsideobsolete.com. Does anyone have one? Or other vendors that I might try perhaps? If worse comes to worse, perhaps I can have mine rebuilt. Any recommended vendors for this? Thanks very much for your time. |

Re: Looking for 1936 coupe fuel gauge.
Is yours a dual gauge or single gauge ?
Here this seller might have some left https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showt...35%2C36+gauges Last edited by deuce lover; 02-27-2024 at 11:05 AM. |

Re: Looking for 1936 coupe fuel gauge.
FYI, I'm looking for the 'single' type of gauge.
(For a Standard model coupe.) |

Re: Looking for 1936 coupe fuel gauge.
were you able to find a guage. I have a single gas guage for a 36 Ford, but the indicator lines for the am't of gas are red. The 35-36 ford book shows pictures for the types of guages but not in color. Maybe mine is for a pickup? Keep in mind that by May 1936 even standard vehicles were fitted with the combination gas/oil pressure units. terry

Re: Looking for 1936 coupe fuel gauge.
Are you sure it is the gauge or could it be the sender or a bad float on the sender.?

If post #7 doesn't solve the problem, nothing will.

However, it appears the original poster already had reached out to him with no luck.

Re: Looking for 1936 coupe fuel gauge.
I see where in his first post he says no luck on Southside Obsolete web page. Fred later made a post claiming he had them. Sometimes these guys don't always have a complete inventory listed on line. That's why an email, text message or phone call is helpful. My two favorite vendors are Southside and Third Gen. Third Gen has had a rough go at it lately with a family issue, however he will get you what you need with some patience.
