is there a good source for the orange to paint the ends of the clock hands. or is there a place to get the hands? i have a clock i was going to put in the 72 cutlass but the hands are faded and the lense is scuffed. the other gauges look like new so i need this to look better. also is there a re pop of the lense for the clock. i got this one working and has had good time now for a week. i used some very light oil on the gears and filed the contacts and works like new.

for the lens, I have had excellent results with a product called novus, I would actually use a drill with a pad of some sort http://www.novuspolish.com/

Definitely try to polish it first but if that doesn't work I got repo lenses from the Parts Place. I used a dark orange highlighter for my needle, I believe it is closer to Red than orange

The guys on one of the Spike TV shows used Testors model paint on the gauge needle ends and it looked like a great match.

I would go to any model car/ hobby store and buy Testors model paint that matches your gauge needles.
