I need to have the speedo rebuilt on my 71' and found a place called CORVETTE CLOCKS by Roger in Jackson TN. Anyone have experience with him?

Default Clocks by Roger

They have been around the Corvette hobby for quite awhile, never heard anything bad about them.

I've had a few things rebuilt by Roger over the years, and have always been satisfied. Turn around time was always within reason, too.

I first used his services for clock repair in approx. 1980 or shortly thereafter; excellent experience with him then; he has continued in the business and knows it well. I saw him again at the annual corvette show in Houston in 2004. I have never heard anything negative about him; appears to do quality work.

Have had work done by Roger & Corvette Specialties. IMO I prefer Corvette Spec.

I bought a replacement clock from Roger at Corvette Carlisle 3 years ago & it's still working fine. He also has the CORRECT temp. sending units for '69s & other early vettes.....Good experiences for me , highly recommend.

Over the years I have bought several parts from him. The speedo and clock in my 70 came from him and both are working fine and have been for around 4 years now. I usually buy from him at Corvette Expo in Knoxville when it comes to town.

I've had two Corvette clocks "done" by Roger and have been very happy. My first clock was probably in he early 1980's. My second was a couple of years ago. I know that you can buy do-it-youself clock kits from the parts houses, but nevertheless, I decided to just send it to Roger. The last time I called, I think I talked to his wife. They also restore radios now.

He re-did my cluster. I converted to a voltmeter instead of amp, and had an oil temp guage instead of a clock. No problem they said and everything still looks and works great. Fast turnaround, good prices.
