OVAL GRILL CLOCKS: all are correct and original for VW:

--VDO oval grill clock. The clockworks have been serviced by a specialist clockmaker in Germany. They were cleaned and oiled. It is the later version that sits out from the grill using a step bezel and it is held to the grill in the rear using the “cup” and cone nut. The chrome step bezel is in good used condition. The clock runs nicely and we have plated the knob in chrome. Original cone nut is in excellent condition. The clock housing and back cup have been replated in zinc. PRICE: $2199US

--NOS VDO oval grill clock with nice working used clockworks. (NOTE: the original NOS clockworks were installed into another clock for one of my customers. The price has been reduced accordingly). This is the earliest version of oval grill clocks, produced beginning in 1952, and initially intended for installation in Zwitters (Split window oval dash). It sits flush with the grill (although you can buy the step bezel and use a modified rear mounting bracket). It is dated 8/59 PRICE: $1599US

WHY BUY SEMAPHORES FROM MATT”S PARTS

• First, we strive to start with only the best premium used semaphores. You can be sure of high quality parts from the lenses, arms, bodies and coils. We do not cover up garbage. Occasionally we have a budget set of semaphores for sale and are upfront about any imperfections.
• Second, all work is done by me personally except for bead blasting and painting arms and plating the bodies and pistons.
• Once semaphores are disassembled we:
--Plate pistons in hard nickel except if they are in NOS condition.
--Plate the bodies in clear cadmium
--Clean the solenoids, recover them in cotton and then treat the cotton with multiple layers of clear electrical lacquer. We spend more time on the coils than most others spend on a full restoration. They will not shrink or fall off.
--Clean and polish the lenses by hand and use only original lenses.
--Install new springs on SWF semaphores, the return spring that winds around the hinge pin is made by hand in stainless steel wire as is the large U shaped retainer spring for the pin upon which the piston linkage pivots. The spring from the hook end of the piston linkage to underside of the arm is also new.
